Lactic acid fermentation occurs in muscle cells when is in low supply?
Lactic acid fermentation occurs due to the lack of oxygen in the the muscle cells Aerobic respiration requires oxygen as an electron receiver to complete the electron transport system, so without it, the cells will be unable to undergo normal respiration and will resort to lactic acid fermentation
What is the name of the fermentation used by muscle cells?
The type of fermentation that sometimes occurs in human muscle cells is Lactic Acid fermentation.

When do cells use fermentation?
fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic respiration). in muscle cells, when the blood supply is inadequate, anaerobic respiration takes place and the glucose is converted into lactic acid in the absence of oxygen :)
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.
When muscles are contracting under oxygen deficient conditions what is formed to ensure they maintain a supply of ATP?
Muscle cells produce lactic acid during anaerobic fermentation. A buildup of lactic acid cause your muscles to feel tired.
What is lactic acid fermentaion?
ALCHOLIC FERMENTATION:- It occurs in bacteria,yeast etc. In this type of anaerobic resipiration pyruvic acid is further broken down into alcohol. Lactic fermentation:- It occurs in skeletal muscles of humans and other animals during extreme physical activities (when oxygen supply is not sufficent) and in bacteria present in milk. In lactic acid fermentation pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid.This process is involved in the production of yogurt.
Where and why does lactic acid fermentation take place?
Lactic acid fermentation takes place in the mitochondria of muscle cells.
What is latic acid fermentation?
Lactic acid fermentation happens when cells convert sugars, when oxygen is in short supply or not present, into lactate. It is done by bacteria, yeast, an animal muscle cells. Lactic acid fermentation is important for the production of yogurt, kefir, most cheeses, sauerkraut, kimchi, fermented pickles, and some types of beer, such as Berliner Weiss Bier.
When o2 supply is inadequate pyuvate is converted to?
Pyruvate is converted to ethanol in alcohol fermentation.It is converted to lactic acid in lactic acid fermentation.
What does fermentation in the muscles produce?
Lactic acid fermentation takes place in human muscle cells when strenuous exercise causes temporary oxygen shortages.
What do muscle cells use when they can't get oxygen for cellular respiration?
Your muscle cells use the energy released in cellular respiration to synthesize new compounds to maintain its tissues; to transport material in and out of its cell; and to perform its mechanical function of expanding and contracting.
