Question

Which statement about anaerobic respiration is true? Anaerobic respiration prevents muscle fatigue. Anaerobic respiration generates a high yield of ATP. Anaerobic respiration is used commercially in the production of beer, wine, bread, yogurt, and cheese. Anaerobic respiration can provide energy to living organisms for several days in the absence of oxygen.

Answer 1

Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. It can create lactic acid or ethanol as a by-product. Lactic acid builds up in muscles and can make them feel tired or sore. Ethanol is used in making wine, beer, etc. It only works for a short time, because there is an initial burst of ATP produced, but then no more is made (it's an inefficient process).

Therefore, the true statement about anaerobic respiration is the third one: hit is used in the production of beer, wine, bread, yogurt, and cheese. Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

Anaerobic respiration is used commercially in the production of beer, wine, bread, yogurt, and cheese.
