∙ 14y agoA 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.

∙ 14y agoA sprinter would predominantly use anaerobic respiration during a sprint because it does not require oxygen and provides energy quickly. This type of respiration produces lactic acid as a byproduct, which can lead to muscle fatigue and soreness.
Anaerobic respiration likely evolved before aerobic respiration. Anaerobic pathways are considered more ancient and can be traced back to early prokaryotic organisms. Aerobic respiration evolved later as a more efficient process that became advantageous with the presence of oxygen in Earth's atmosphere.
The production of lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts would indicate that the respiration reactions are anaerobic. These byproducts are produced when there is a lack of oxygen available to complete the aerobic respiration process. Additionally, anaerobic respiration typically produces less energy compared to aerobic respiration.
An organism would perform anaerobic respiration when oxygen is not available or in limited supply. Anaerobic respiration allows organisms to continue generating ATP in the absence of oxygen by using alternative electron acceptors, such as nitrate or sulfate. One disadvantage of anaerobic respiration is that it is less efficient than aerobic respiration and can produce byproducts like lactic acid or ethanol.
Aerobic refers to action where oxygen is able to be introduced. Anaerobic refers to a lack of oxygen. Aerobic exercise is a physical activity that allows the participant to breathe and replenish their supply of oxygen such as long distance running. Anaerobic exercise uses oxygen faster than the body is able to replenish it. The cells use any stored oxygen but have to operate without their supply being replenished for a short time. Sprinting would be an anaerobic activity.
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).
An eukaryotic cell would need more food molecules to produce the same amount of energy in anaerobic respiration compared to aerobic respiration. This is because aerobic respiration produces more ATP per molecule of glucose compared to anaerobic respiration.
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 is better suited for a sprint coupled reaction of creatine phosphate (CP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) as it can quickly generate ATP without requiring oxygen. Aerobic respiration, on the other hand, is more efficient for long-term endurance activities.
Presence of byproducts such as lactic acid or ethanol, absence of oxygen, lower energy yield compared to aerobic respiration.
Disadvantages of fermentation compared to aerobic and anaerobic respiration include lower energy yield per glucose molecule, production of lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts which can be toxic in large amounts, and limited sustainability for sustaining prolonged energy production due to the buildup of fermentation byproducts.
