Yeast use fermentation (alcoholic fermentation).

This produces carbon dioxide, alcohol, and some energy.

What kind of respiration produces lactic acid?

Anaerobic respiration produces lactic acid. This type of respiration occurs when oxygen is not readily available, leading to the conversion of pyruvate to lactic acid to regenerate NAD+ for glycolysis to continue.


Is alcoholic fermentation a special kind of respiration?

Yes, alcoholic fermentation is a form of anaerobic respiration where glucose is converted into ethanol and carbon dioxide with the release of energy. It is different from aerobic respiration, which uses oxygen to break down glucose into carbon dioxide and water for energy production.


How do different respiratory substrates affect rate of anaerobic respiration in yeast?

The rate of reaction in respiration depends entirely on what kind of sugar you use. Glucose or Fructose are the most efficient in respiration. Other sugars you could use include Galactose or Sorbose, both which do not help yeast to respire efficiently. In order of reaction rate (Highest first): Glucose, Fructose, Galactose, Sorbose


In what kind of environment would you expect to find organisms that carry out fermentation?

in an environment where there is little or no oxygen. aerobic respiration requires oxygen ad when it is not present fermentaion (anaerobic respiration) occurs because it works when oxygen isn't there


What kind of respiration is goes on in your body when you run?

When you run, your body primarily relies on aerobic respiration to produce energy. This process uses oxygen to convert glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which fuels your muscles. As exercise intensity increases, your body may also engage in anaerobic respiration, especially during short bursts of high intensity, leading to the production of lactic acid. Overall, both types of respiration work together to meet the energy demands of your muscles during running.

What kind of respiration do yeasts use to produce energy?

Yeasts convert sugars into alcohol and CO2.


What kind of respiration does your body use?

anaerobic


What kind of respiration does not use oxygen?

Anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen. It involves breaking down energy sources without the need for oxygen, resulting in the production of lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts. Anaerobic respiration is common in organisms like bacteria and yeast.

What kind of bacteria does not need oxygen to live?

Anaerobic bacteria do not require oxygen to live. They are able to generate energy from sources other than oxygen, such as fermentation or anaerobic respiration. Some examples of anaerobic bacteria include Clostridium and Bacteroides.

Anaerobic


What kind of organisms carry out respiration?

Anaerobes like archaebacteria and other microorganisms


What is the difference between anaerobic respriation and aerobic respriation?

The difference between anaerobic respiration and aerobic respiration is that with Type one which is slow twitch the muscles are aerobic (uses oxygen).Therefore, this is why when biking, jogging, and swimming, for example, you will not get as fatigued and you will have more endurance. The other respiration would be type two which is fast twitch, which are anaerobic (require no oxygen) these are vulnerable to accumulation of lactic acid and can fatigue easily,this kind of muscle twitch is found most often being used by weight lifters,and sprinters, or perhaps, someone swinging a golf club. This type is found to be designed for strength.


What are some proposed causes of skeletal muscle fatigue?

I think you are talking about the effect of exercise on the human body. There's two types of respiration humans use, when exercising - aerobic respiration - when oxygen is plenty, thus when you are not panting and getting enough oxygen you are using the kind of respiration. It requires the prescence of oxygen and glucose and produces 38 ATP and carbon dioxide, which is is exhaled. The other respiration, when you are panting and not gettiong enough air, is called anaerobic respiration. It only requires the prescence of glucose and only produces 2 ATP and lactic acid, which attacks your muscles, making you feel fatigued and produces muscle pain. Hope this anmswers your question. Fun Fact: The more time it takes for your body to go into anaerobic respiration, the more fit you are ! :)


Does yeast need oxygen specifically o2 to survive if not what kind of oxygen or compound molecule etc does it need to survive?

Yeast species either require oxygen for aerobic cellular respiration (obligate aerobes) or are anaerobic, but also have aerobic methods of energy production (facultative anaerobes). Unlike bacteria, there are no known yeast species that grow only anaerobically (obligate anaerobes). Yeasts grow best in a neutral or slightly acidic pH environment. (Wikipedia:Yeast)
