Where does lactic acid occur?

I can tell you lactic acid build-up occurs in the muscles and is released as a waste product into the blood after working the muscles. This is what causes soreness and muscle fatigue after working out strenuously. What I think you are talking about is the process of the body to turn sugars such as fructose into energy that can be used in cells and can be metabolized. Lactic acid fermentation occurs in cardiac muscles, the liver and any other oxygen starved muscles.

Does the Krebs cycle start with pyruvic acid and yield lactic acid or alcohol?

The Krebs cycle starts with acetyl-CoA, not pyruvic acid. It produces ATP, NADH, FADH2, and carbon dioxide but does not yield lactic acid or alcohol. Lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation occur in the absence of oxygen.

What do fermentation and lactic acid have in common?

Both occur anaerobically, or with exercise, but lactic acid occurs in muscles (you know that burning sensation after muscle fatigue? It's from lactic acid buildup in muscles) and alcoholic fermentation occurs by yeast. So basically, the main thing that they have in common is just that they occur anaerobically.

In vertebrate animal cells where does the synthesis of lactic acid occur?

The synthesis of lactic acid occurs in the cytoplasm of vertebrate animal cells through the process of anaerobic glycolysis. This metabolic pathway converts glucose into lactic acid when oxygen is limited.
