What is the by-product of lactic acid fermentation?

Lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid, carbon dioxide, and ATP.


When an organic product such as pyruvic acid is the final electron acceptor in the metabolic pathway the pathway is termed?

fermentation


Which type of fermentation is Glucose -- pyruvic acid -- lactic acid plus 2 ATP?

Lactic Acid fermentation :)


What is lactic acid fermentaion?

ALCHOLIC FERMENTATION:- It occurs in bacteria,yeast etc. In this type of anaerobic resipiration pyruvic acid is further broken down into alcohol. Lactic fermentation:- It occurs in skeletal muscles of humans and other animals during extreme physical activities (when oxygen supply is not sufficent) and in bacteria present in milk. In lactic acid fermentation pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid.This process is involved in the production of yogurt.

What is the difference between ethanol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation?

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 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.

Do cellular respiration and fermentation have any similar reactions?

Both start with glycolysis... but once you reach pyruvic acid, they're very different. Respiration final product is an inorganic compound (oxygen) whereas fermentation final product is an organic compound (such as lactic acid or ethanol)


When o2 is not present to which compound is pyruvic acid converted?

If oxygen is not present, the pyruvic acid molecules will begin to undergo fermentation. They remain in the cell during aerobic respiration.
