How does human cells use fermentation?
Fermentation is simply anaerobic cellular respiration where an organic compound is used as an electron acceptor instead of using oxygen. Consequently, lots of types of cells can utilize fermentation. There are examples of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes that are capable of anaerobic respiration. The most common example of fermentation is in the yeast cell, which produces the alcohol found in beer. Another example is the human muscle cell, which produces lactic acid through fermentation when there is not enough oxygen present to continue cellular respiration (such as after a long jog).
What is a fermentation product that is formed in your cells if you do not have enough oxygen to carry out cellular respiration?
If oxygen is lacking, cells can meet their energy needs through fermentation using the energy captured during glycolysis.=Reference: Audesirk, T. Audesirk, G., & Byers, B. (2005). Biology: Life on Earth (7th ed). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Pearson Prentice Hall.=
Where in your body can you use anaerobic respiration?
In your muscle cells. In your case, the only fermentation your cells are going through is lactic acid fermentation (and not alcohol fermentation). Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen. If there is oxygen present, then your cells will go through aerobic respiration normally. However, there are times when your cells lack oxygen, as in intense exercise. When cells can do both aerobic and anaerobic respiration, it is called facultative respiration.
Why would your body go through lactic acid fermentation instead of cellular respiration?
Lactic acid will be the temporary end point of cellular respiration while oxygen supplies are limited, as while enduring exertion. This temporary presense of an excess amount of acid in the muscle tissue is what causes the feeling 'muscle burn'.
What happens to muscles when there is not enough oxygen?
oxygen debt. more oxygen is needed than what is being supplied. the body then begins anaerobic respiration (the cells "breathe" for you). a result of anaerobic respiration is lactic acid. lactic acid is that soreness feeling you get after a hard workout
What is the moment called when the egg and sperm cells meet together to make a baby?
It is not really Fertilization it is Fermentationbecause the joining of the egg and the sperm makes it to be FERMENTATION
Why does oxygen diffuses into the cells from the bloodstream?
Oxygen diffuses into cells from the bloodstream due to a concentration gradient, where oxygen is higher in the blood compared to inside the cells. This diffusion occurs passively, moving from an area of higher concentration (blood) to an area of lower concentration (cells), to meet the cell's energy demands for cellular respiration.
From what source do cells get food?
ANSWER IS NOT OXYGEN, I ANSWERED OXYGEN AND IT WASN'T RIGHT. The correct answer is BLOOD
What conditions is aerobic respiration unable to supply enough oxygen to meet the demands of your cells?
when it is over 22.3 degrees
How do the smallest and thinnest animals meet the requirement of supplying oxygen and nutrients to cells and removing metabolic waste?
Transmutiasis
Why is diffusion insufficient meet the oxygen requirements of multicellular organisms like humans?
In single-celled organisms the entire surface of the organisms is in contact with the environments for the diffusion of substances. In multi-cellular organisms all the cells may not be in direct contact with the surrounding environment. So simple diffusion will not meet the requirements of all the cells.
What kind of fermentation occurs in the muscle tissue of animals?
muscle cell do not undergo fermentation but anaerobic respiration which is the incomplete break down of glucose to energy and lattic acid; fermentation only occur in plant or anaerobic bacteria such as yeast.
