Yeasts and a few other microorganisms use alcoholic fermentation, forming ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide as wastes. Alcoholic fermentation produces carbon dioxide as well as alcohol. Causes bread to rise and bubbles to form inside of the bread.

∙ 11y agoFermentation is used to separate liquid mixtures using the property of different boiling points.
A mixture of liquids can be boiled, say ethanol and water. The ethanol will boil before the water does, the ethanol vapour can then be recondensed and collected in a separate container.
Fermentation is also used to refine liquids of any pollutants.

∙ 13y agoFermentation is generally the breakdown of nutrients into simpler products. One example is the fermentation of bread, whereby the yeast breaks down the sugar found in bread dough into simpler substances such as water, ethanol and carbon dioxide (which escape when the bread is baked).
How is it useful to us? Well, a lot of foods are products of fermentation. Examples are bread, beer and wine. Yogurt and Yakult are also produced through fermentation, specifically through fermenting milk.

What unicellular organism uses alcoholic fermentation?
Your ma
What is the main difference between respiration and fermentation?
respiration uses oxygen
If oxygen is not needed in a cell process the process is .?
A+ students - anaerobic The process in which cells don't use oxygen is called Fermentation. Fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are different, lactic acid fermentation uses the oxygen faster than you can breathe so you feel muscle pains.
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?
cellular respiration uses oxygen but fermentation does not use oxygen
What two processes in glucose breakdown are anaerobic?
During glucose breakdown, glycolysis and fermentation occur anaerobically. Glycolysis breaks a glucose molecule into energy and pyruvate. Fermentation uses to the pyruvate to form either ethanol or lactate.
What anaerobic organism uses fermentation to convert energy?
Anaerobes all use fermentation.
How is cellular respiration and fermentation different?
Respiration uses oxygen, while fermentation does not use oxygen.
Differences between fermentation and respiration?
one uses oxygen to get energy and the other uses yeast!Fermentation does not need oxygen. Aerobic respiration need oxygen
What is a organism that makes its own food through fermentation?
Chuck Norris does not use fermentation. He uses awesomenation.
What are two oldest uses of fermentation?
Making bread and beer.
What unicellular organism uses alcoholic fermentation?
Your ma
What are facts about fermentation?
it uses yeast, there is lactos and alcohol as the main 2
What limits how far the process of the fermentation will go the process steps?
Fermentation is only limited by how much 'food' the microorganism that is driving the fermentation process has. Usually, the microorganism uses sugar, as long as they have a constant supply of food, the fermentation will continue.
What is the main difference between respiration and fermentation?
respiration uses oxygen
What is the difference between respiration to fermentation?
Respiration uses oxygen, fermentation doesn't.
If oxygen is not needed in a cell process the process is .?
