The two types of respiration are aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration.
1. Aerobic respiration:
C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
2. Anaerobic respiration (fermentation):
C6H12O6 --> 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 + ATP (in case of alcoholic fermentation)
or
C6H12O6 --> 2 lactic acid + ATP (in case of lactic acid fermentation)
Mention the two types of respiration and state their balanced chemical equation
