Anaerobic respiration begins when the body recognizes it does not have enough oxygen to produce adequate amounts of ATP. ATP is a biomolecule created during cellular respiration, and is the main energy producing molecule in organic molecules. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in cellular respiration and leads to the creation of water. If you do not have oxygen present the sugar can only undergo glycolysis and fermentation
