Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic respiration produces more usable chemical energy in the form of ATPs than fermentation because aerobic respiration involves the complete oxidation of glucose and the release of carbon dioxide and water as end products.
Detailed explanation-2: -Comparing Fermentation and Cellular Respiration Because fermentation doesn’t use oxygen, the sugar molecule doesn’t break down completely and so releases less energy. The fermentation process in cells releases about two energy units whereas cellular respiration releases a total of about 38 energy units.
Detailed explanation-3: -Aerobic respiration and fermentation are two processes which are used to provide energy to cells. In aerobic respiration, carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is produced in the presence of oxygen. Fermentation is the process of energy production in the absence of oxygen.
