Why does aerobic respiration produce more ATP than anaerobic respiration?

erik [133]

Aerobic respiration produces more ATP than anaerobic respiration because aerobic respiration occurs when oxygen is present and is then able to produce ATP as normal with a profit. However, anaerobic respiration has a lack of oxygen, which leads to either fertilization, only producing enough ATP to keep the cycle going and the cell surviving, (not creating any excess/profit ATP).

Carbohydrates (grains and vegetables) are the largest group at the base of the pyramid, proteins (milk, poultry, eggs, nuts) follow up the pyramid while lipids (fats and oils) are the least amount at the summit of the pyramid.

The aim of the pyramid is to recommend ideal rations for a healthy diet. Carbohydrates provide most of the energy needs for the days’ activities hence taking the largest portion.
