Aerobic respiration produces more energy as in it completely the glucose is completely break down into its subsequent particles by which it is made up of and the full amount of the energy stored in it is received in the form of ATP to our body cells but in anaerobic respiration the complete break down of glucose is not done. the process of aerobic respiration as many as 36 molecules of ATP are produced for every molecule of glucose that is utilized. This shows that aerobic respiration produce much more energy than anaerobic respiration, which produces only 2 ATP molecules.

    A, B and C are three living organisms. The organism A is a unicellullar fungus which can live without air. It is used in the commercial production of an organic compound P from molasses. The organism B is a unicellular animal which lives in water and feeds and moves by using pseudopodia. It breathes through an organelle Q. The organism C is a tiny animal which acts as a carrier of malarial parasite. It breathes and respires through a kind of tiny holes R and air - tubes S in its body.
