When compared to anaerobic respiration, what does aerobic respiration release more of?

  • Correct Answer: pressure
  • heat
  • carbon dioxide
  • energy

Explanation: A major advantage of aerobic respiration is the amount of energy it releases. Without oxygen, organisms can just split glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. This releases only enough energy to make two ATP molecules. With oxygen, organisms can break down glucose all the way to carbon dioxide. This releases enough energy to produce up to 38 ATP molecules. Thus, aerobic respiration releases much more energy than anaerobic respiration.
