In biology, anaerobic respiration is a way for an organism to produce usable energy without the involvement of oxygen; it is respiration without oxygen.[1] Respiration is a redox reaction that processes energy in a form usable by an organism, chiefly the process of producing ATP[2], the "universal energy currency of life".[3] It employs an electron transport chain, with inorganic molecules other than oxygen used as a final electron acceptor. [edit] Examples of anaerobic respiration
All of these terminal electron acceptors have smaller reduction potentials than O2, meaning that less energy is released per oxidised molecule of primary electron donor than in aerobic respiration (i.e. it is less energetically efficient). The ΔG0' of aerobic respiration is -2844 kJ. [edit] Commercial applications of anaerobic respiration[edit] Notes
