fermentation

Question 1

fermentation is the process by which atp is generated?

Answer 1

in the absence of oxygen, glycolysis still occurs

Question 2

is there cac and etc in fermentation

Answer 2

no

Question 3

what is the final electron acceptor?

Answer 3

organic molecule not oxygen

Question 4

is moreor less atp generated with fermentation

Answer 4

less

Question 5

two common fermentation pathways are?

Answer 5

lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation

Question 6

where does alcohol fermentation occur?

Answer 6

cytoplasm

Question 7

so in alcohol fermentation glycolysis

Answer 7

1 glucose molecule inputed, 2 atp is the netgain, 2 used, 2 nadh are used. next each pyruvate is converted into acetaldehyde and then into ethanol.

Question 8

lactic acid fermentation

Answer 8

occurs when oxygen is limited suc as during intense exercise. it allpws cells to continue producing atp through glycolysis without the need for oxygen

Question 9

it occurs ?

Answer 9

in cytoplasm of cells,muscle cells

Question 10

what is produced?

Answer 10

2 atp net gain and 2 nadh but the nadh is oxidized back to nad to allow glycolysis to continue 2 molecules of lactic acid produced
