False

Aerobic respiration is the process by which an organism obtains energy by reacting oxygen with glucose to give water, carbon dioxide and ATP (energy). Respiration takes place in the mitochondria membrane complex of eukaryotes and on the cell membrane of prokaryotes and provides the cells with energy. It is the preferred method of pyruvate breakdown from glycolysis and requires that pyruvate enter the mitochondrion to be fully oxidized by the Krebs cycle. The product of this process is energy in the form of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate), by substrate-level phosphorylation, NADH and FADH2.

This is False! Respiration needs glucose and oxygen it then produces energy, carbon dioxide and water.

It requires Oxygen, not Carbon Dioxide

false.
cellular respiration goes

carbohydrates-glucose-glycolosis-pyloric acid and the pyloric acid breaks off into anaerobic and aerobic. anaerobic occurs when there is oxygen and aerobic is when there is no oxygen. anaerobic branches off into plant and animal. the plant has lactid acid and the animal has alcohol. aerobic happens in mitochondria and anaerobic happens in the cytoplasm.
