  1. Aerobic is a type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen and anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen to operate.


  2. aerobic respiration involving oxygen. it is carried out in the bodies of almost living organisms.there is a complete oxidation of glucose , leading to the release of carbon dioxide, water and large amount of energy.some lower organisms like yeast, bacteria release energy by breaking glucose into ethyl alcohol and co2 .

    this type of respiration does not need oxygen and hence is called anaerobic respiration.this is also called fermentation. oxidation of glucose is incomplete and energy released is much less as compared to aerobic respiration.you must have noticed the souring of sugarcane juice after it is open for some time . this souring is due to the fermentation of sugsr present in the juice. you can even see the bubbling out of carbon dioxide in the juice after 2-3 hours

  3. Aerobic exercise is requires the use of oxygen, and is typical for most longer-duration types of exercise, such as cross-country running or cycling. Anaerobic exercises do not require the use of oxygen, but instead use the sugars and other nutrients found inside your muscle tissue to perform exercises that require a great deal of energy over a short period of time. A byproduct of anaerobic exercise is the buildup lactic acid, which is why many people's muscles hurt after anaerobic exercises, such as sprinting or weight lifting.  

  4. Aerobic Respiration=  cellular respiration with oxygen

    Anaerobic Respiration= cellular respiration without oxygen
