Anaerobic respiration 0.0 / 5 ? BiologyAnaerobic respirationGCSEAQA Created by: Lottie2004Created on: 02-05-18 20:25 Oxygen debt The waste lactic acid you produce during anaeribuc respiration is a problem. It can't just be got rid of by breathing it out As a result, lactis acid needs breaking down to produce C02 and H20. This needs oxygen. The amount of 02 needed to break down the lactic acid to C02 and H20 is known as the oxygen debt. The bigger the debt, the longer you will puff and pant. 1 of 2 What is anaerobic respiration? Not as efficient as aerobic respiration Respiration without oxygen Glucose molecules aren't broken down completely In animal cells, the end product of anaerobic respiration is lactic acid instead of CO2 and H2O Less energy is transferred than during aerobic respiration Anaerobic respiration= glucose-> lactic acid (energy transferred to environment) glucose - ethanol + carbon dioxide (energy) 2 of 2
