Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen and food substances are patially broken down.They releases smaller amount of energy and produces lactic acid or alcohal.In human body, anaerobic respiration often occurs in the muscles during vigorous exercise because they don't get enough oxygen.

Anaerobic respiration in humans can only happen for a short amount of time. The reason for this is that Anaerobic means without oxygen, and humans need oxygen to breath. Aerobic means with oxygen, so normally humans aerobically respire. However, if you are short of breath after viscous exercise for a short period of time you anaerobically respire.
