The Venn diagram compares aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration.

Which statement should be categorized only in the aerobic section of the Venn diagram?

Answer :

The statement that should be in the aerobic only section is; Produces water. Option B

Does aerobic respiration produce water?

Water is one of the byproducts of aerobic respiration. Oxygen acts as the last electron acceptor in the last phase of aerobic respiration, which takes place in the mitochondria's electron transport chain. Water (H2O) is created when protons and electrons mix. For aerobic respiration, the general chemical equation is:

Energy (ATP) + 6 O₂ (oxygen) + C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) = 6 CO₂ (carbon dioxide) + 6 H₂O (water)
