Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Aerobic respiration
• It occurs in the presence of `O_2`
• It involves the exchange of gases between the organisms and the outside environment.
• It occurs in cytoplasm and mitochondria.
• It always releases `CO_2` and `H_2O`.
• It yields large amount of energy.
Anaerobic respiration
• It occurs in the absence of `O_2`
• Exchange ofgases is absent.
• It occurs only in cytoplasm.
• It produces alcohols `CO_2`
• Energy released is very low.
