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 :)
Yes...Cells do use both Respiration and fermentation to release energy.
Cells don't do fermentation, the yeast does. Cells don't do fermentation, the yeast does.

No, not all body cells always use cellular respiration and fermentation. Different cells in the body have different energy needs and can switch between these processes depending on factors such as oxygen availability and energy requirements. Cells like muscle cells primarily use aerobic respiration, while certain microorganisms and muscle cells can use fermentation in the absence of oxygen.
in fermentation, cells release energy without

lactic acid fermentation. (produces lactate and is only about 100th as efficient as cellular respiration)
No, fermentation occurs in the cytoplasm outside the mitochondria.
At the completion of the glycolic process, pyruvic acid is produced. Some of the pyruvic acid ends up in the cell mitochondria where cellular respiration takes place. In the absence of oxygen, the pyruvic acid goes through a process of fermentation, which takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell.
Fermentation is simply anaerobic cellular respiration where an organic compound is used as an electron acceptor instead of using oxygen. Consequently, lots of types of cells can utilize fermentation. There are examples of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes that are capable of anaerobic respiration. The most common example of fermentation is in the yeast cell, which produces the alcohol found in beer. Another example is the human muscle cell, which produces lactic acid through fermentation when there is not enough oxygen present to continue cellular respiration (such as after a long jog).
