Questions & Answers

QUESTION:

Compare and contrast aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

Both processes include glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

Aerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen and is highly efficient, yielding a larger amount of ATP. Oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, leading to the complete breakdown of glucose into carbon dioxide and water.
