Cards (3)

  • In aerobic respiration, 1 glucose molecule converted into 38 ATP molecules. In anaerobic respiration 1 glucose molecule is converted into 2 ATP molecules.
  • Aerobic respiration formula:
    Glucose + oxygen -> Carbon dioxide + water + ATP
  • Anaerobic respiration formula:
    In animals- Glucose + oxygen -> Lactic acid + ATP
    In plants- Glucose + oxygen -> Ethanol + Carbon dioxide + ATP
