Question

true or false question

anaerobic fermentation produces the same amount of atp as aerobic respiration.

true
false

Explanation:

Compare ATP yields of metabolic pathways

Using the Anaerobic Metabolism knowledge point

• Anaerobic fermentation yields only 2 ATP per glucose molecule via glycolysis.
• Aerobic respiration yields approximately 30 to 32 ATP per glucose molecule through glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain.
• Therefore, anaerobic fermentation produces significantly less ATP than aerobic respiration, making the statement false.

Answer:

• True
• False (Correct answer)
