Detailed explanation-1: -Word equation for anaerobic respiration: Glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide + energy (2 ATP)
Detailed explanation-2: -Anaerobic respiration takes place in the cell cytoplasm and produces lactic acid. The chemical equation is C6H12O6-> 2C3H6O3 (Glucose-> Lactic acid).
Detailed explanation-3: -So, the correct option is ‘Respiration’.
Detailed explanation-4: -Aerobic respiration is the aerobic catabolism of nutrients to carbon dioxide, water, and energy, and involves an electron transport system in which molecular oxygen is the final electron acceptor. The overall reaction is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 yields 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (as ATP).
Detailed explanation-5: -C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O (glucose + oxygen-> carbon dioxide + water).
