RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
True or false:anaerobic respiration releases energy faster than aerobic respiration
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Summary. Aerobic respiration produces much more ATP than anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration occurs more quickly than aerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Aerobic respiration produces almost 15 times more energy than anaerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -In aerobic respiration 38 molecules of ATP are produced. Hence during aerobic respiration, more energy is produced than anaerobic respiration.
