Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
what is the product in anaerobic respiration?
A
carbon dioxide
B
water
C
lactic acid
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Anaerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration where respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. The end product of anaerobic respiration in plants is ethanol. At the same time, the end product of anaerobic respiration in animals is lactic acid.

Detailed explanation-2: -Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen and is less efficient than aerobic respiration. Unlike aerobic respiration, the end products here are ethyl alcohol as in yeasts and lactic acid as in animal cells. So the answer is ‘Alcohol and lactic acid’.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lactic acid is an organic compound produced via fermentation by different microorganisms that are able to use different carbohydrate sources. Lactic acid bacteria are the main bacteria used to produce lactic acid and among these, Lactobacillus spp. have been showing interesting fermentation capacities.

Detailed explanation-4: -In lactic acid fermentation the end product is-Lactate.

Detailed explanation-5: -Lactic acid fermentation – In this type of anaerobic respiration, glucose is split into two molecules of lactic acid to produce two ATP.
