Understand the Problem

The question is asking about the process of anaerobic cellular respiration and how it compares in efficiency to aerobic respiration in converting glucose to ATP.

Answer

Aerobic cellular respiration

Aerobic cellular respiration is more efficient at converting glucose to ATP.

Answer for screen readers

Aerobic cellular respiration is more efficient at converting glucose to ATP.

More Information

Aerobic cellular respiration produces approximately 32 molecules of ATP per glucose molecule via oxidative phosphorylation, making it much more efficient than anaerobic respiration which typically produces only 2 ATP per glucose molecule.

Tips

Ensure oxygen is available for the process to proceed through the more efficient aerobic pathway.
