Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Aerobic respiration is different from anaerobic respiration in that aerobic respiration needs ____
A
chlorophyll
B
carbon dioxide
C
glucose
D
oxygen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic Respiration-Takes place in the presence of oxygen. Anaerobic Respiration –Takes place in the absence of oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Aerobic: Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. (glucose + oxygen-> carbon dioxide + water). Anaerobic respiration also produces energy and uses glucose, but it produces less energy and does not require oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are two types of cellular respiration: aerobic and anaerobic. One occurs in the presence of oxygen (aerobic), and one occurs in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic). Both begin with glycolysis-the splitting of glucose. Glycolysis is an anaerobic process-it does not need oxygen to proceed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Aerobic respiration requires the presence of oxygen to produce energy from food. It is the most common type of respiration seen in plants and animals.

Detailed explanation-5: -Answer 1: Aerobic respiration produces high energy whereas anaerobic respiration produces less energy.
