Aerobic respirationAnaerobic respirationIt occurs in the presence of O2.
It occurs in the cytoplasm and mitochondria.
It always releases CO2and H2O as end product.
It involves production of high energy i.e 36 ATP.
C6H12O6→ CO2+ H2O + ATP ( Energy)
It occurs in the absence of O2.
It occurs only in the cytoplasm.
End products are mostly lactic acid and alcohol
It involves production of less energy only 2 ATP
C6H12O6→ Lactic acid /alcohol + energy
