Fermentation and respiration are very different things.

Fermentation is the chemical breaking down of a substance (such as the souring of milk) produced by an enzyme and usually accompanied by the formation of a gas (bubbling).

Respiration is breathing.

What are the difference cellular respiration and respiration?

Oxygen is the difference! Cellular respiration requires oxygen, while cellular fermentation does not.


Is it true that the main difference between respiration and fermentation is that fermentation does not use water?

no


What is the difference between respiration to fermentation?

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.

What is the main difference between respiration and fermentation?

The main difference is that respiration involves the breakdown of glucose with the presence of oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water, while fermentation is an anaerobic process that breaks down glucose into energy and other byproducts like lactic acid or ethanol without the use of oxygen.
