Question:medium

Which of the following is not a product of anaerobic respiration?

Show Hint

\[ \boxed{\text{Anaerobic respiration products: ethanol or lactic acid}} \] \[ \boxed{\text{Acetyl CoA → aerobic respiration}} \]
  • Ethanol + CO$_2$
  • Lactic acid
  • Acetyl CoA
  • None of the above
Show Solution

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Anaerobic respiration in yeast produces ethanol and $CO_2$, while in muscle cells it produces lactic acid; $CO_2$ is a common product in yeast fermentation but not in lactic acid fermentation. Water ($H_2O$) is NOT produced in anaerobic respiration; it is generated only in the electron transport chain during aerobic respiration.
