Want this question answered?
while respiration implies air, fermentation is an anaerobic (no oxygen) process.
No, fermentation is another form of respiration. It occurs when there is no final acceptor for the electrons in the transport chain. The opposite process of cellular respiration is photosynthesis because it builds up the molecules that respiration breaks down.
Cell Respiration: Fermentation. All cells are able to synthesize ATP via the process of glycolysis. In many cells, if oxygen is not present, pyruvate is metabolized in a process called fermentation. Fermentation complements glycolysis and makes it possible for ATP to be continually produced in the absence of oxygen.
Fermentation is an anaerobic process that produces ATP without the use of oxygen, while aerobic respiration is an aerobic process that generates ATP using oxygen. Fermentation produces lactic acid or alcohol as byproducts, while aerobic respiration produces carbon dioxide and water. Fermentation is less efficient in terms of ATP production compared to aerobic respiration.
Fermentation is also called anaerobic respiration, as it is a metabolic process that occurs in the absence of oxygen to produce energy.

I assume you meant respiration - in which case : fermentation does not require oxygen.
cellular respiration requires oxygen while fermentation does not
Respiration has oxygen.
The fermentation process of cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. It does not require oxygen and produces a small amount of ATP compared to aerobic respiration.
Respiration is the process where cells break down glucose in the presence of oxygen to produce energy, while fermentation is the process where cells break down glucose in the absence of oxygen to produce energy. Respiration produces more energy (ATP) compared to fermentation and is more efficient. Fermentation produces byproducts such as lactic acid or ethanol, while respiration produces carbon dioxide and water.
Cellular Respiration occurs if there is the oxygen involved, this is also called aerobic respiration. Fermentation is also known as anaerobic respiration which means that it doesn't need oxygen.
No, fermentation is another form of respiration. It occurs when there is no final acceptor for the electrons in the transport chain. The opposite process of cellular respiration is photosynthesis because it builds up the molecules that respiration breaks down.
for cellular respiration a process of oxidation takes place at some stage (aerobic) while in fermentation it is in abscence of oxygen(anaerobic)
Glycolysis in the cytoplasm
cellular respiration: anaerobic:: fermentation :anaerobic
There is no opposite or reverse reaction, but fermentation is an anaerobic process, one not requiring oxygen. The aerobic equivalent would be respiration (oxidation).
