Question
Explain the two types of respiration.

Answer

S.No. Aerobic respiration Anaerobic respiration
$1.$ An aerobic respiration takes place using oxygen, inhaled in breathing. Whereas an anaerobic respiration requires no oxygen.
$2.$ In aerobic respiration, breakdown of glucose results in production of Carbon Dioxide, Water and Energy. In anaerobic respiration, the breakdown of glucose first results in Lactic Acid and energy then lactic acid break down into carbon dioxide and water.
$3.$ An aerobic respiration uses respiratory organs such as lungs or gills. Anaerobic respiration take place at cellular or muscular level.
  • Both aerobic and anaerobic respiration are necessary for the survival of living organism.
  • In both type of respiration, the food is broken and energy is released for the functioning of an organism.
  • In both type of respiration, Carbon Dioxide, Water and Energy is produced finally.
