Summary Introduction

The cell respiration yields the cell with more energy than in the fermentation process. The anaerobic respiration is devoid of oxygen, the oxygen is not considered as the end terminal electron in the anaerobic respiration. The anaerobic respiration uses nitrate, ferric iron, and sulfate as their terminal electron for respiration.
