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: -Key points. Respiration is a chemical reaction which occurs in all living cells, releasing energy from glucose. Aerobic respiration occurs with oxygen and releases more energy but more slowly. Anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen and releases less energy but more quickly.

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.
