What is the equation for alcoholic fermentation after glycolysis?
Wiki User
∙ 15y ago
The product of glycolysis is pyruvate. In alcoholic (ethanol) fermentation, pyruvate is converted into ethanol and carbon dioxide. The first step is decarboxylation, catalyzed by pyruvate decarboxylase:
CH3COCOO- --> CH3CHO
pyruvate --> acetaldehyde
Then acetaldehyde is reduced to ethanol; this step is catalyzed by alcohol dehydrogenase and involves the oxidation of NADH+ + H+ to NADH:
CH3CHO --> CH3CH2OH

What are the two terms that are anaerobic chemical reactions?
Alcoholic fermentation Glycolysis
What is the value of the alcoholic fermentation pathway?
it replenishes NAD+ so that glycolysis can produce ATP
What are the two types of anaerobic fermentation's?
Lactic Acid Fermentation and Alcoholic Fermentation.
What type of fermentation fermentation occurs in yeast?
Alcoholic fermentation is the type of fermentation that occurs in yeast.Anaerobic respiration, namely alcoholic fermentation. This process is very similar to glycolysis, except for the fact that alcoholic fermentation replaces one enzyme with two enzymes that change pyruvic acid into ethanol and carbon dioxide.
What must happen for ATP to release energy to the cell?
glycolysis, krebs, electron transport chain, alcoholic 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.
