Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen, typically in environments with low oxygen levels such as deep ocean sediments, wetlands, and the gut of animals. Organisms resort to anaerobic respiration when oxygen is limited to continue generating energy by using alternative electron acceptors like nitrate, sulfate, or carbon dioxide.
