Not to be confused with Lactic acid fermentation. Anaerobic respiration is a form of respiration using electron acceptors other than oxygen. Although oxygen is not used as the final electron acceptor, the process still uses a respiratory electron transport chain; it is respiration without oxygen.In order for the electron transport chain to function, an exogenous final electron acceptor must be present to allow electrons to pass through the system.n aerobic organisms, this final electron acceptor is oxygen. Molecular oxygen is a highly oxidizing agent and, therefore, is an excellent acceptor. In anaerobes, other less-oxidizing substances such as sulfate (SO 4 2â), nitrate (NO 3 â), sulphur (S), or fumarate are used.
