Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which type of respiration produces the most energy
A
Anaerobic
B
Aerobic
C
Both produce the same amount
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

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

Detailed explanation-2: -Aerobic respiration is far more energy-efficient than anaerobic respiration. Aerobic processes produce up to 38 ATP per glucose. Anaerobic processes yield only 2 ATP per glucose.

Detailed explanation-3: -The stage that produces most of the ATP during cellular respiration is the electron transport system (ETS).
