Answer #1

The main differences between aerobic and anaerobic glycolysis have been tabulated below:

Basis Aerobic Glycolysis Anaerobic Glycolysis
Source Occurs in the presence of oxygen Occurs in the absense of oxygen
Functions To provide energy to the cells during normal conditions. To provide energy to the cells during extreme conditions.
Product 32 moles of ATP formed as end product. Water and carbon dioxide are the biproducts. 2 moles of ATP formed as end product. Lactic acid is the byproduct in animals and ethanol in plants.
Location

Occurs in 2 steps: The first step occurs in the cytosol and the second in the mitochondria.

 Is a single step process. Occurs in the cytosol of the cell.
