Question

8. Cells carry out either aerobic or anaerobic respiration. Which of the following describes a difference

between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
a Anaerobic respiration requires oxygen, while aerobic respiration does not
b. Anaerobic respiration requires less carbon dioxide than aerobic respiration
c. Aerobic respiration produces more ATP than anaerobic respiration
d. Aerobic respiration is more commonly carried out by microorganisms

Answer 1

C.) Aerobic respiration produces more ATP than anaerobic respiration.

Step-by-step explanation:

Aerobic respiration is a cellular respiration reaction that requires the presence of oxygen. The electron transport chain in this reaction creates 32 ATP, making for a total of 36 ATP gained by aerobic respiration.
