Mitochondrion perform aerobic respiration to produce energy. This however is only true as long as oxygen is present at the time.

What is the type of respiration that occurs in the lungs called?

The type of respiration that occurs in the lungs is called external respiration. This process involves the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air in the alveoli and the blood in the pulmonary capillaries. Oxygen from the inhaled air diffuses into the blood, while carbon dioxide from the blood is expelled into the alveoli to be exhaled.

What is the explanation for the two types of respirations?

The first type of respiration is anaerobic respiration. This type of respiration does not have enough oxygen supplied. The body would be not delivering enough oxygen or the environment does not contain enough oxygen. Two things can happen is anaerobic respiration. Ethanol and lactic acid fermentation. Ethanol occurs in yeast cells in an oxygen poor environment. The product of this is alcohol. Lactic acid occurs in human cells. It occurs during strenuous exercise. This reaction begins with glycolysis, when insufficient oxygen is delivered to working muscles the pyruvate can not be shipped into the mitochondria to continue the metabolic process. Therefore the pyruvate converts to lactic acid so the cells do not run out off ATP. Lactic acid makes muscles hurt and feel sore. It will decrease the performance of the muscles.The second type of respiration is aerobic respiration, which occurs when the oxygen demand of cells are adequately met. This type of respiration produces large amount o energy.
