Q. Anaerobic respiration is also called:

WBJEEWBJEE 2006

Solution:

After glycolysis, if oxygen is absent (anaerobic respiration), the pyruvic acid forms ethyl alcohol $ ({{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH) $ and carbon dioxide $ (C{{O}_{2}}) $ without the help of any cell organelle. This anaerobic process is called fermentation.
