Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic respiration produces about 19 times more energy than anaerobic respiration per glucose molecule.

Detailed explanation-2: -Advantages of Aerobic Respiration With oxygen, organisms can break down glucose all the way to carbon dioxide. This releases enough energy to produce up to 38 ATP molecules. Thus, aerobic respiration releases much more energy than anaerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Aerobic respiration produces around 18 times more energy compared to anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration generates 38 ATP, while anaerobic respiration generates 2 ATP using one glucose molecule. Anaerobic respiration thus produces less energy than aerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-4: -All multicellular species, such as birds, mammals, insects, and humans, are examples of organisms that engage in aerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration is much more efficient due to the high production of ATP. This high production occurs due to the complete breakdown of glucose into CO2 and Energy (ATP).

Detailed explanation-5: -Aerobic respiration is much more efficient, and produces ATP much more quickly, than anaerobic respiration. This is because oxygen is an excellent electron acceptor for the chemical reactions involved in generating ATP.
