How does the process of fermentation differ from the process of respiration?
while respiration implies air, fermentation is an anaerobic (no oxygen) process.
Is fermentation the opposite process of cellular respiration?
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.
What is a product of cellular respiration and nor fermentation?
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.
How is fermentation diffrent than aerobic respiration?
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.
What is fermentation also called?
Fermentation is also called anaerobic respiration, as it is a metabolic process that occurs in the absence of oxygen to produce energy.
