Anaerobic respiration is a biological process in which cells generate energy without using oxygen. Instead, it relies on alternative molecules to accept electrons at the end of the electron transport chain. This process typically produces less energy compared to aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration can result in byproducts like lactic acid in animals or ethanol and carbon dioxide in yeast. It’s commonly used by organisms in environments where oxygen is scarce or during intense physical activity when oxygen supply can’t meet the demand.
