Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen Is the High-Energy Molecule Powering Complex Multicellular Life: Fundamental Corrections to Traditional Bioenergetics.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glycolysis, which is the first step in all types of cellular respiration is anaerobic and does not require oxygen.
Detailed explanation-3: -Adenosine 5’-triphosphate, or ATP, is the most abundant energy carrier molecule in cells. This molecule is made of a nitrogen base (adenine), a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups.
Detailed explanation-4: -Anaerobic processes do not use oxygen, so the pyruvate product-ATP is one kind of pyruvate-remains in place to be broken down or catalyzed by other reactions, such as what occurs in muscle tissue or in fermentation.
