Well, fermentation is the process of obtaining energy from food without oxygen. Most single-celled organisms such as bacteria and protists use fermentation, seeing as they live where there is no oxygen, like under the ocean or in mud. For this question, there are technically two answers, on account of there being two types of fermentation. The first type of fermentation is Alcoholic Fermentation. This type of fermentation occurs in yeast and other single celled organisms. This process is called alcoholic fermentation because alcohol is one of the producs produced. When the organism breaks down the suger of the food it eats, alcohol is produced, which is useful to bakers and brewers. The other type of fermentation is Lactic-Acid Fermentation. You have most likely felt it's effects many times. Think about a time when you ran for a very long time and as fast as you could. While running you are breathing quickly, because your cells need more energy for you to keep going. Eventually you get tired and have to stop, but no matter how hard you breathe, the muscle cells in your body used up oxygen faster then it could be replaced. Therefore, lactic-acid fermentation occured. The main product of this type of fermentation is lactic-acid, and when it builds up, you feel a painful sensation in your muscles, and they become weak and sore. Hope this helps!

Is there a difference between isopropyl alcohol and rubbing alcohol?
Yes, there is a difference between isopropyl alcohol and rubbing alcohol. Isopropyl alcohol is a type of alcohol that is commonly used as a disinfectant and solvent, while rubbing alcohol is a type of alcohol that is typically a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water.
