Aerobic release more energy than Anaerobic respiration.Oxygen is needed for Aerobic respiration, but not for Anaerobic Respiration. Anaerobic Respiration results in a Oxygen Debt. Hope this helps (:

Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. ... Anaerobic respiration also produces energy and uses glucose, but it produces less energy and does not require oxygen.
