Anaerobic respiration is a type of respiration that does not use oxygen. It's a way for an organism to produce energy when oxygen levels are low.
This is the process used by cells to produce energy under anaerobic conditions. It’s like making homemade bread without using an oven.
A product of anaerobic respiration in many types of cells, including human muscle cells. It’s similar to the smoke produced when burning wood – a byproduct of the process.
As mentioned earlier, this is the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration where glucose is broken down into pyruvate.
