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.
