What are the Differences between aerobic and anaerobic fermentation?
Fermentation refers to catabolic processes where organic molecules, such as sugars or amino acids, are broken down to produce energy without the use of a membrane-bound electron transport chain. Depending upon the organism, fermentation can occur in the presence (aerobic) and/or in the absence (anaerobic) of oxygen. Fermentation pathways produce byproducts such as carbon dioxide, ethanol (alcohol), or organic acids (lactic acid or acetic acid, for example). Yeast cells can ferment sugar and in the process produce carbon dioxide and alcohol. Lactobacillusbacteria can ferment the sugar lactose and produce lactic acid; this is how yogurt is made. Wine vinegar is produced by bacteria that ferment the sugars in grape juice and produce acetic acid. Fermentation is sometimes called anaerobic respiration, but microbiologists disagree with this usage. The term respiration refers to energy-yielding metabolic processes that involve a membrane-bound electron transport chain.
What is the chemical resulting from fermentation of various kinds of vegetable matter?
The chemical resulting from fermentation of various kinds of vegetable matter is primarily ethanol (alcohol). However, other byproducts such as acetic acid, lactic acid, and carbon dioxide may also be produced depending on the specific type of fermentation and the microorganisms involved.
What are the waste products of alcohol fermentation?
alcohol and co2
Does fermentation require an organic electron acceptor?
Fermentation is the process of converting sugar into carbon dioxide and alcohol. This process requires the action of enzymes, typically contained in yeasts.
What is the equation for the fermentation of simple sugars to alcohol?
The equation for fermentation of the simple sugars to alcohol are, Sugar (glucose) yields alcohol (Ethyl alcohol) + CO2 (g) + energy.
Which process does this animal rely on to produce most of its ATP molecules?
Electron transport chains
Which process produces most of ATP molecules?
The electron transport chain makes the most ATP. It is the slowest of all processes, but makes 32 ATP.
What are the two stages of respiration?
aerobic respiration: glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain anaerobic respiration: glycolysis, fermentation (lactic acid or alcohol)
What is the alcohol used in vodka?
Your question doesn't make sense, as alcohol is a compound which is made through fermentation. It is not 'used' in vodka, the alcohol is created during the fermentation process involved in making the Vodka. Vodka is made by fermenting and distilling potato juice.
Is glucose involved in fermintation?
Yes, it is required for the lactic acid cycle of respiration where alcohol is produced. This process yields alcohol as a byproduct and that is what we call fermentation.
Is Water a part of alcohol production?
Water is a by-product when it is produced through fermentation,so it is Evolved in the production not Involved
What is the microbial process that converts sugar to alcohol?
_______ is the formation of alcohol from sugar. Answer Lactic acid fermentation Glycolysis Yeast Alcoholic fermentation

Process used to make bread rise lactic acid fermentation or alcoholic fermentation?
alcohol fermentation -- the ethanol (alcohol) and carbon dioxide are produced by the yeast.

The chemical resulting from fermentation of various kinds of vegetable matter is primarily ethanol (alcohol). However, other byproducts such as acetic acid, lactic acid, and carbon dioxide may also be produced depending on the specific type of fermentation and the microorganisms involved.
The alcohol produced in fermentation by yeast is ethyl alcohol?
Ethanol is made by the fermentation of sugar using yeast.
What types of fermentation occurs in bacteria and yeast?
Alcohol fermentation.
