Which is required for anaerobic respiration? a. oxygen b. water c. mitochondria d. pyruvate

OpenStudy (fortheloveofwolves):

i want to say c cause i know it isn't a or b but i'm not positive so...@sikinder

OpenStudy (sreekar369):

d

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

Anaerobic Respiration does not require oxygen, so it is obviously not A, and I'm check the rest. :)

OpenStudy (fortheloveofwolves):

water involves oxygen so it can't be that either

OpenStudy (sreekar369):

in anerobic respiration pyruvate break down and forms lactic acid and ethanol it site of reaction is mitochondria

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

I think it may be D. i am not 100% sure, though.

OpenStudy (sreekar369):

its conform d

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

Anaerobic respiration also takes place in the cytoplasm, not mitochondria, so A B and C are ruled out.

OpenStudy (fortheloveofwolves):

you're the genius here ;) jkjk im not ragging

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

I hope this helped. :) Let us know if its right. :)

OpenStudy (sreekar369):
