Solution
| No. | Aerobic respiration | Anaerobic respiration |
| 1. | It takes place in higher organisms. | It takes place in lower organisms. |
| 2. | It takes place in cytoplasm and mitochondria. | It takes place in cytoplasm. |
| 3. | It involves the participation of free molecular oxygen. | It does not involve participation of free molecular oxygen. |
| 4. | Oxidation of food is complete. | Oxidation of food is incomplete. |
| 5. | It produces CO2 and H2O. | It produces CO2 and C2H5OH. |
