Chez la plupart des plantes, la respiration est aérobique, car elle utilise l'oxygène de l'air dans le processus de l'oxydation des aliments (surtout des glucides et lipides). La respiration aérobique a un fort rendement énergétique [...] Les produits finaux de la respiration aérobique sont le gaz carbonique, l'eau et l'énergie. 2, record 1, French, - respiration%20a%C3%A9robie
