in anaerobic respiration pyruvate is converted into a)ethanol b)CO2 c)acetic acid d)lactic acid

Dear student,
Anaerobic respiration:
1- occurs in the cytoplasm
2- does not need oxygen
3- involves 2 processes- glycolysis and fermentation

• Glycolysis is broken down into 2 pyruvate(pyruvic acid) molecules
• Reactions use 2 ATP
• Reactions make 4 ATP 
• Net ATP= 2/ glucose molecule

In animal Pyruvate is converted to lactic acid
In plants and fungi Pyruvate is converted to ethanol and carbon dioxide 

ATP is the end product- used to capture energy of reactions
