D. Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen.
Explanation: Aerobic respiration uses oxygen as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, while anaerobic respiration (or fermentation) uses other electron acceptors or pathways and therefore does not require oxygen. Anaerobic processes still consume glucose and produce ATP, but generally yield less ATP than aerobic respiration.
