Solution

No, Humans do not produce Carbon di oxide during anaerobic respiration.
In humans, it is the muscle tissue that respires anaerobically normally during exercise. At that time the body cannot intake the required oxygen for the cells to respire. In this situation energy is not made and the muscles require more energy. So they achieve it in the absence of oxygen. This is called anaerobic respiration of humans. But when they have stopped exercising or relaxing during exercise they breathe heavily to compensate the oxygen debt.
