What is the difference between ethanol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation?
Wiki User
∙ 12y ago
lactic acid fermentation, is an enzyme converts pyruvic acid made during glycolysis into another three-carbon compound.
Alcoholic fermentation, is to convert pyruvic acid into ethyl alcohol.

What is homo and hetero fermentation?
homo lactic fermentation is a type of fermentation in which only one product is formed like lactic acid in hetro lactic fermentation more than one product is formed like lactic acid and ethanol
How are lactic acid fermentation and alchoholic fermentation similar?
Alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are similar because glucose is oxidized to two molecules of pyruvic acid. The difference between them is that alcohol fermentation yield two molecules of ATP also.
The two main types of fermintation are called?
lactate fermentation (build up of lactic acid) and alcoholic fermentation (produces ethanol)
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.
Explain why muscles must use lactic acid fermentation instead of cellular respiration during intense physical activity?
Because mammalian muscle cells are genetically programmed to perform lactic acid fermentation, not ethanol fermentation.
Alchoholic fermentation and Lactic Acid fermentation?
Yes? lactic acid fermentation produces only lactic acid alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and co2
What are the 2 types of fermentation and what do each produce?
The two types of fermentation are alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation is also referred to as ethanol fermentation.
How the lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation?
Lactic fermentation transform sugars having six carbons in lactic acid.Alcoholic fermentation transform sugars in ethanol and carbon dioxide.
What is the difference between Lactic acid fermentation and Aerobic equation?
The main difference between lactic acid fermentation and aerobic equation is the presence of oxygen. Lactic acid fermentation does not require oxygen, while in aerobic equation, oxygen is present.
What is homo and hetero fermentation?
homo lactic fermentation is a type of fermentation in which only one product is formed like lactic acid in hetro lactic fermentation more than one product is formed like lactic acid and ethanol
What does cellular fermentation form?
lactic acid or alcohol( ethanol)
What is the difference between lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation?
Ethanol fermentation-makes ethanol and is made by other organismsLactic acid fermentation - makes lactate and is made by animalsboth lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation begin with pyruvic acid and nadh. they are anaerobic processes that result in the production of energy in the absence of oxygen. So basicly the two differences are that one makes ethanol and one makes lactic acid, and the other is that they are made by different species.Alcoholic fermentation occurs in organisms such as yeast, as produces ethyl alcohol. Lactic acid fermentation occurs in animals such as humans and produces lactic acid instead of alcohol.
What are two types of fermentations?
the two types of fermentation are alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation
What is the waste product of alcohol fermentation?
Lactic acid, alcohol, and carbon dioxide are waste products of fermentation.
What are two types of fermentation and explain?
the two main types of fermentation are alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation. The two main types of fermentation are: 1.) Alcoholic fermentation 2.) Lactic acid fermentation
What do both lactic fermentation and alcoholic fermentation produce?
they alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and carbon dioxide and 2 ATP molecules in bacteria and yeast and lactic fermentation produces 2 ATP molecules
During lactic acid fermentation alcohol and carbon dioxide are produced?
The process that produces ethanol is alcoholic fermentation. The process that produces lactic acid is lactic acid fermentation.
