Explain the difference between anaerobic and aerobic metabolism
The production of ATP via the electron transport chain requires oxygen in the final step and is called aerobic metabolism. Glycolysis produces ATP without oxygen and is therefore called anaerobic metabolism. When exercise intensity requires more ATP than can be provided by the electron transport chain (due to limited oxygen or other factors), ATP production from glycolysis is stepped up, making glucose a critical fuel for the exercising muscles.
