What is the difference between lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation?

Ethanol fermentation-makes ethanol and is made by other organisms
Lactic acid fermentation - makes lactate and is made by animals
both 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.

Alcoholic fermentation, is to convert pyruvic acid into ethyl alcohol.

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.
Alchoholic fermentation and Lactic Acid fermentation?
Yes? lactic acid fermentation produces only lactic acid alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and co2
What are the two of fermentations?
alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation
What types of fermentation are there?
Alchoholic fermentation and Lactic Acid fermentation
What is the difference between the two fermentation?
There are two types of fermentation: Alcoholic Fermentation and Lactic Acid Fermentation. Both types have the same reactants: Pyruvic acid and NADH, both of which are products of glycolysis. In alcoholic fermentation, the major products are alcohol and carbon dioxide. In lactic acid fermentation, the major product is lactic acid. For both types of fermentation, there is a side product: NAD+ which is recycled back to glycolysis so that small amounts of ATP can continue to be produced in the absence of oxygen.
How are lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation different?
alcohol is stronger
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 are the two kinds of fermentation?
1.) Alcoholic fermentation 2.) Lactic acid fermentation
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 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.
