Answer 1

Difference between Aerobic respiration and Anaerobic respiration :

Aerobic Respiration	Anaerobic Respiration
(1) This action occurs in the presence of oxygen.	(1) This action takes place in the absence of oxygen.
(2) This action takes place in both the biological fluid and the mitochondria biological fluid.	(2) This action takes place only in the of the cells.
(3) In aerobic respiration, complete oxidation of glucose occurs.	(3) In anaerobic respiration incomplete oxidation of glucose takes place.
(4) In this action CO2 and water are formed.	(4) Alcohol and carbon dioxide are formed in this process.
(5) In this action from a molecule of glucose 38 ATP molecules are free.	(5) From a molecule of glucose in this action 2 ATP molecules are free.
(6) Complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose releases 673 kcal of energy.	(6) Partial oxidation of one molecule of glucose releasing 21 kilo calorie of energy.
