Solution

Answer:
  • Anaerobic type of respiration takes place in human muscles during vigorous physical exercise.
  • During heavy physical exercise, the body needs more energy than usual but the energy produced by aerobic respiration is insufficient to fulfill the body requirement, so muscles cells respire anaerobically to release energy.
