Answer:
Consume less glucose per ATP produced.
Explanation:
Aerobic respiration includes glycolysis, the PDC, the Krebs cycle, and electron transport, to produce a total of 32 ATP per glucose (assuming the malate-aspartate shuttle is used to transfer the electrons from glycolytic NADH into the mitochondria). On the other way, anaerobic respiration involves only glycolysis and fermentation of pyruvate to lactate, to produce 2 ATP per glucose. Anaerobic respiration is therefore much less efficient and must consume much more glucose to produce the same amount of ATP. Since cardiac muscle uses mostly aerobic respiration, it will be more efficient than skeletal muscle and uses less glucose to produce an equivalent amount of ATP.
