Question

task card #5
what is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
without

Explanation:

Aerobic respiration uses oxygen, occurs in mitochondria, produces large ATP (36 - 38), CO₂ and H₂O, and is efficient. Anaerobic respiration doesn't use oxygen, occurs in cytoplasm, produces little ATP (2), lactic acid (in animals) or ethanol + CO₂ (in yeast/plants), and is less efficient.

Answer:

Aerobic respiration: Requires oxygen, occurs in mitochondria, produces large amounts of ATP (36 - 38), carbon dioxide and water, is efficient. Anaerobic respiration: Does not require oxygen, occurs in cytoplasm, produces small amounts of ATP (2), lactic acid (in animals) or ethanol and carbon dioxide (in yeast/plants), is less efficient.
