A sprinter would be using aerobic respiration. Running requires large quantities of oxygen, and is used up quickly to produce energy.
EDIT: Actually, a sprinter would be more likely to use anaerobic respiration, if compared to someone else, such as a marathon runner.
A marathon runner would rely on aerobic respiration and efficient use of the oxygen they breathe, whereas a sprinter would use up all that energy very fast, which would then lead to a lack of oxygen, which finally results in the usage of anaerobic respiration to attempt to fulfill the large amount of energy required to go so fast.
Aerobic means with oxygen Anaerobic means without. So, anaerobic would have to come first.
When oxygen is not available. "anaerobic" means "without oxygen ("aerobic" = oxygen).
Oxygen debt is a side-effect of anaerobic respiration caused by a build up of lactic acid that needs to be broken down. This is because in anaerobic respiration short amounts of energy are made without oxygen used (only glucose) and this oxygen needs to be repaid.
If you break down the word aerobic: aero- "air" + bios "life". So aerobic organisms live on the presence of air, specifically oxygen. The prefix ana- is a negation, so anaerobic organisms do not require oxygen for respiration. Some organisms (called facultative anaerobes) are able to switch from aerobic to anaerobic respiration. The determining factor in the switch from aerobic to anaerobic would be the presence of oxygen. If there is no oxygen, then facultative anaerobes will respire anaerobically.
aerobic respiration basically its first step is called glycolysis and is further divded in two forms either aerobic which occur in presence of o2 and anaerobic in absences of oxygen Exactly so to answer the question the process the REQUIRES O2 is aerobic respiration like i said.

Yes. In more complex organism, in which aerobic respiration is the main process to make ATP, when your body does have enough oxygen it goes though anaerobic respiration. In simpler organisms, which don't require much ATP, anaerobic would be the main process.
There is no opposite or reverse reaction, but fermentation is an anaerobic process, one not requiring oxygen. The aerobic equivalent would be respiration (oxidation).
If the cell is performing anaerobic respiration, this is called fermentation. Fermentation produces a net gain of two ATP molecules and uses two molecules of glucose (food). Aerobic respiration known as cellular respiration produces a net gain of 38 ATP molecules.
Aerobic and anaerobic typically refer to microorganisms. Obligate anaerobes die in the presence of oxygen, and obligate aerobes die without it. Most plants occur in an oxygen-rich, terrestrial environment, and would thus be considered aerobic. Even totally aquatic plants, as those found in oceans, are exposed to some quantities of oxygen, thus it seems logical to surmise that if the terms aerobic and anaerobic are to be applied to macroscopic life such as plants, plants would be considered aerobic.

aerobic respiration is produced with oxgen where as anarobic doesnt have any oxgen presentaerobic :Glucose + oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + water + energyanaerobic:Glucose = Carbon Dioxide + ethanol +energy

anaerobic glycolysis because it doesn't require oxygen and when you're sprinting, it's hard to take in that oxygen, that's why after the sprint you would be gasping for air because your body prefers to use aerobic respiration which yields the most ATP.
The equation for anaerobic respiration is: glucose ---> lactic acid + carbon dioxide + energy To know the disadvantages of anaerobic respiration it is best to compare it to aerobic respiration which involves oxygen (glucose + oxygen ---> carbon dioxide + water + energy) For humans to respire regularly and for long periods of time, oxygen is required. This means that anaerobic respiration through humans causes a lack of oxygen, and cannot be carried out for a very long time. Lactic acid is also produce and this is toxic and causes things such as cramp to build up. Anaerobic respiration also produces very little energy compared to aerobic respiration so is not suitable for every day respiration! Humans will mostly breathe anaerobically in situations such as sprinting in a race.
