The overall equation for (one of the many fermentations which is probably considered the simplest called lactic acid) fermentation is: C6H12O6->2CH3CHOHCOOH or one molecule of water and lactose produces four lactic acid molecules. These processes are the homolactic fermentation. The heterolactic fermentation is :

C6H12O6-> CH3CHOHCOOH + C2H5OH +CO2 aerobic respiration proceeds as follows: C6H12O6 + O6 (g) -> 6 CO2 (g) + 6 H2O (l) + energy (heat)

This reaction is spontaneous due to the change in G, or Gibb's free energy.

The anaerobic process is simply an aerobic respiration using another redox chemical in the place of Oxygen.

Fermentation is anaerobic because it does not use oxygen in its process. The term meaning "without oxygen" is anaerobic.

Cellular respiration uses oxygen therefore making it aerobic.

Which is the correct equation for anaerobic respiration in humans?

C6H12O6 → 2C3H6O3 + 2 ATP Glucose → Lactic Acid + (Energy) Anaerobic respiration refers to the oxidation of molecules in the absence of oxygen to produce energy. Since energy cannot be expressed chemically it is not always recognised as a product in equations but it is, however, still produced as a result of this reaction.

What the symbol equation for aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

The word equations for anaerobic respiration are: glucose ---> energy + lactic acid (this is in animals) glucose ---> energy + ethanol (alcohol) +carbon dioxide (this is in plants and yeast) Hope this helps ;x The symbol equations for animals (i'm not sure about plants) are: Aerobic : C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----> 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy g33 Anaerobic: C6H12O6 ----> C3H6O3 + Energy the word and symbol equation for photosynthisis: Carbon Dioxide + glucose --Light----> Oxygen + water 6CO2 + 6H2O --------> C6H12O6 + 6O2 And the symbol and word equation for anaerobic respiration in yeast is: Glucose -------> ethanol + carbon dioxide + energy C6H12O6 ----------> C2H6OH + 2CO2 + energy


How are the equations for photosyntheis and cellular respiration related?

Yes they are related. Carbohyrdates are used in respiration.


How are the chemical equations for photosynthesis and and aerobic respiration different?

They are opposite to each other .


Compare phtosynthesis and respiration?

the equations are backward but are the same molecules or substances being used


What can Described as the reverse of photosynthesis?

Cellular respiration. Their chemical equations are the reverse of each other.


What is the process that does the opposite to photosynthesis?

Cellular respiration, because it releases the energy stored in carbon bonds by photosynthesis, and recombines carbon into carbon dioxide.


What are the raw materials equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Photosynthesis CO2 + H2O + Sunlight Cellular respiration O + Glucose Raw materials for these processes.


How are equations for cellular respiration and photosynthesis?

This is photosynthesis: Sunlight + 6CO2 + 6H2O ----> 6O2, C6H12O6 This is cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----> 6CO2, 6H2O, ATP


How are the equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration different?

The overall equation of photosynthesis differs from the reverse of the overall equation of cellular respiration in that sunlight is not needed in the reverse of cellular respiration. Also, chlorophyll need not be present for the latter process.
