In the absence of oxygen, the cell uses a process called fermentation. Fermentation doesn't break the sugar down any further, it simply helps reset the system so that more sugar can be broken down.
Because aerobic respiration breaks the sugar all the way down, it releases much more energy than fermentation.
The breakdown of glucose with the presence of oxygen is called the "Light Reaction." or aerobic cellular respiration. Either is a correct.
fermentation
fermentation .
The muscle continues to contract in the absence of oxygen through Glycolysis. Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid in the cytoplasm of a cell. It is called an anaerobic process, because it does not require oxygen.

In the absence of oxygen in the absence of oxygen
All cells exist in oxygen in some way. Some organisms gain oxygen from the atmosphere while others use oxygen from carbohydrates and other forms of sustenance.
The breakdown of food without the use of oxygen is fermentation.

Lactic acid
The muscle continues to contract in the absence of oxygen through Glycolysis. Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid in the cytoplasm of a cell. It is called an anaerobic process, because it does not require oxygen.
It turns into carbon dioxide due to the breakdown of glucose(carbohydrates).
fermentation!
No, enzymes break carbohydrates down into sugar.

The breakdown of food without the use of oxygen is fermentation.
carbohydrates
Fermentation is the breakdown of carbohydrates by enzyme action under anaerobic conditions. This is important to provide energy when insufficient oxygen is present.
respiration is in presence of oxygen which leads to complete breakdown of sugar yielding many times more energy than in fermentation which is in absence of oxygen
