A) Anaerobic respiration yields considerable more energy
B) Aerobic respiration yields more energy than an aearobic respiration
C) Both release equal energy
D) Anaerobic yields slightly more energy than aerobic respiration
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
The aerobic respiration yields more energy than anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration: \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}{{O}_{6}}+6{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow[respiration]{Aerobic}\] \[6C{{O}_{2}}+6{{H}_{2}}O+673kcal\,energy\] Anaerobic respiration: \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}{{O}_{6}}\xrightarrow[respiration]{Anaerobic}2{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\] \[+2C{{O}_{2}}+18kcal\,energy\]
