Detailed explanation-1: -Anaerobic respiration takes place in the cell cytoplasm and produces lactic acid. The chemical equation is C6H12O6-> 2C3H6O3 (Glucose-> Lactic acid).
Detailed explanation-2: -The anaerobic respiration equation depends on which fermentation pathway is used by the living organism. For anaerobic respiration in animals, the equation is: C6H12O6→2C3H6O3+energy C 6 H 12 O 6 → 2 C 3 H 6 O 3 + e n e r g y .
Detailed explanation-3: -Dissolved nutrients like glucose are slowly burnt (oxidized) with the help of oxygen and energy is released in the form of ATP. Waste materials like CO2 and water vapours are produced during this process. Cellular respiration can be summarized as follows: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy (38ATP)
