DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AEROBIC & ANAEROBIC ENERGY SYSTEM

The body's energy production can be classified into aerobic and anaerobic systems. Aerobic energy production requires oxygen and occurs in the mitochondria, breaking down glucose completely to produce 38 molecules of ATP, carbon dioxide, and water, thus releasing more energy.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AEROBIC & ANAEROBIC ENERGY SYSTEM

AEROBIC

EXAMPLE
cycling
running
swimming
Occurs in mithochondria
Glucose completely broken down
Produces carbon dioxide, water & energy
38 molecules of ATP or 2898 kJ
Release more energy
Oxygen present

ANAEROBIC

EXAMPLE :
heavy weight lifting
sprinting
jumping
Occurs in cytoplasm
Glucose NOT completely broken down
Produce lactic acids & energy (muscle cells) or ethanol, co2, energy (yeast)
2 molecules of ATP or 150 KJ (mucle cells), 210 KJ (yeast)
Release less energy
Oxygen absent
