Notes from NEET topper

Aerobic Respiration:

  • Aerobic respiration is the most common and efficient type of cellular respiration.

  • It takes place in the presence of oxygen and occurs in eukaryotic cells’ mitochondria.

  • The process involves glycolysis, the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), and the electron transport chain (ETC).

  • It yields a large amount of ATP (up to 38 ATP molecules per molecule of glucose).

  • Carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are the primary end products.
