Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration Flashcards
How does aerobic respiration differ to anaerobic respiration?
•it uses oxygen
•it produces more energy
•involves the complete breakdown of glucose
•does not produce lactic acid
•does not produce ethanol
How does anaerobic respiration differ to aerobic respiration ?
•it produces lactic acid (in animals)
•produces ethanol (in plants/yeast)
•produces less energy
•does not require oxygen
•involves incomplete breakdown of glucose
What are the 2 main types of respiration?

What is anaerobic respiration in yeast cells known as?
Fermentation
How is fermentation used in bread making ?
It is used to make bread rise
How is fermentation used in the alcohol industry?
It produces ethanol (alcohol)
When does anaerobic respiration occur?
When doing vigorous exercise so your body cannot supply enough oxygen to your muscles
