Study Notes

Anaerobic Respiration

Anaerobic respiration occurs when oxygen isn't present for the cell.
It produces significantly less ATP compared to aerobic respiration.
It uses electron acceptors other than oxygen (O2).
Despite not using oxygen as the final electron acceptor, it still employs a respiratory electron transport chain.
