(a) What are the end products in anaerobic respiration ? How much energy is released in it ? Is it considered wasteful process ? (b) Does anaerobic respiration occur in aerobes ? Give example .

Answer» (a) In yeasts ,ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide are the en products . In some bacteria and parasitic worms (Ascaris tapeworm), lactic acid is the end product.
Anaerobic respiration yields only about 5% of the energy available in glucose. Thus it is a wasteful process.
(b) yes . The aerobes also carry on anaerobic metabolism in certain tissues e.g., skeletal tissues .
