Question
which type of cell respiration produces the most atp? aerobic respiration anaerobic respiration both produce the same amount
Aerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen and goes through glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. The electron transport chain in aerobic respiration generates a large amount of ATP. Anaerobic respiration (like fermentation) occurs without oxygen. It only goes through glycolysis (which produces a small amount of ATP) and then a fermentation step that does not produce additional ATP. So aerobic respiration produces more ATP.
