Anaerobic Cellular Respiration

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Anaerobic cellular respiration runs an electron transport chain to an inorganic molecule other than oxygen as the final electron acceptor.

Show

Certain sulfate-reducing bacteria pass electrons down a transport chain to sulfate instead of oxygen, releasing hydrogen sulfide gas.

Watch for

Anaerobic respiration still uses an electron transport chain — it differs from aerobic respiration only in its final electron acceptor.
