Detailed explanation-1: -Glycolysis, which is the first step in all types of cellular respiration is anaerobic and does not require oxygen.
Detailed explanation-2: -The word anaerobic indicates “without oxygen.” The term has many uses in medicine. Anaerobic bacteria are germs that can survive and grow where there is no oxygen. For example, it can thrive in human tissue that is injured and does not have oxygen-rich blood flowing to it.
