Fermentation in muscle cells produces lactic acid. This happens when you have overworked your muscles, which can happen during exercise.
During exercise and movement muscle cells begin to undergo fermentation. During fermentation lactic acid is produced causing sore muscles.

Lactic acid
The type of fermentation that sometimes occurs in human muscle cells is Lactic Acid fermentation.
Fermentation is a way to produce energy when there isn't enough oxygen available.
Lactic acid fermentation, which occurs in muscle cells when there is a lack of oxygen, only produces two molecules of ATP per glucose molecule. Aerobic respiration produces 34-38 molecules of ATP per glucose molecule. So, in order to produce enough ATP to function, there needs to be more glucose available.
your muscle cells produce lactic acid or something like that. did you get that question on a worksheet? i did...
