Introduction
Anaerobic Respiration is a type of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen.
Certain bacteria can only use anaerobic respiration. In fact, they may not be able to survive at all in the presence of oxygen.

Conclusion
Lactic Acid Fermentation: is a type of anaerobic respiration that includes glycolysis followed by the conversion of pyruvic acid to lactic acid and the formation of NAD+
Alcoholic Fermentation: is a type of anaerobic respiration that includes glycolysis followed by the conversion of pyruvic acid to ethanol and carbon dioxide and the formation of NAD+
Aerobic Fermentation: is a type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen
Anerobic Fermentation: is a type of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen
