Which is common between aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration?

Which is common between aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration? Correct Answer Glycolysis

Concept-

  • An important feature of all living cells is respiration which is related to the liberation of metabolic energy as ATP.
  • Respiration is an amphibolic and exergonic cellular process.
  • Respiration is of two types.
    • Aerobic respiration- with the use of oxygen. Eg plants
    • The equation of Aerobic Respiration
      • Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy
    • Anaerobic respiration- without the use of oxygen. Eg yeast
    • The equation of Anaerobic Respiration
      • Glucose → Alcohol + Carbon dioxide + Energy

Explanation-

[ alt="F1 Utkarsha Singh Anil 16.03.21 D6" of cellular respiration aerobic and anaerobic study src="//storage.googleapis.com/tb-img/production/21/03/F1_Utkarsha%20Singh_Anil_16.03.21_D6.png" style="height: 425px; width: 530px;">

  • The Process of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell.
  • Glycolysis is the metabolic process that serves as the foundation for both aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration.
  • The final product of glycolysis is pyruvate in aerobic respiration and lactate in anaerobic respiration.
  • Glucose is a six-membered ring molecule found in the blood and is usually a result of the breakdown of carbohydrates into sugars.
  • C6H12O6 + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP + 2 P —–> 2 pyruvic acid, (CH3COCOOH + 2 ATP + 2 NADH + 2 H+
  • This is the first stage of respiration and is also called Embden Meyerhof-Path.​

Thereby Glycolysis is common between aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration.​
