What else can I help you with?
Production of energy without oxygen is called?
Anaerobic respiration.
What does fermentation make?
Aerobic fermentation makes energy, water and CO2 Anaerobic fermentation makes energy, water, alcohol and CO2.
When energy is given off in the absence of oxygen is what?
Fermentation
What is missing that makes fermentation anaerobic?
Fermentation is anaerobic because it doesn't require oxygen to produce energy. Instead, it uses organic compounds as electron acceptors in the absence of oxygen. This process generates energy for the cell without the need for aerobic respiration.
What do photosynthesis and fermentation have in common?
Photosynthesis and fermentation both involve energy conversion processes in living organisms. While photosynthesis uses light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, fermentation is an anaerobic process that converts sugars into energy in the absence of oxygen, producing either alcohol or lactic acid.
What are the two terms that are anaerobic chemical reactions?
Fermentation and glycolysis are two examples of anaerobic chemical reactions where energy is produced without the presence of oxygen.
What does it mean if an organism is anaerobic or aerobic, and how does this impact its ability to generate energy?
Organisms that are anaerobic do not require oxygen to generate energy, while aerobic organisms do. Anaerobic organisms can generate energy through processes like fermentation, which is less efficient than aerobic respiration. Aerobic organisms can produce more energy because aerobic respiration is a more efficient process that requires oxygen.
Yeasts do a kind of anaerobic respiration called?
Yeast use fermentation (alcoholic fermentation). This produces carbon dioxide, alcohol, and some energy.
How does bacillus anthracis grow?
By using aerobic respiration and anaerobic fermentation Yersinia pestis are able to produce and consume hydrogen gas for energy.
If an organism grows in the OF-glucose medium that is exposed to air is the organism osidative or fermentaive?
If the organism grows in the OF-glucose medium exposed to air, it is likely undergoing oxidative metabolism. This is because air contains oxygen, which the organism can use through oxidative phosphorylation to generate energy. If the organism were fermentative, it would generate energy through fermentation pathways even in the presence of oxygen.
What organism that can live only in an Oxygen-free environment?
Anaerobic bacteria are organisms that can live in environments with little to no oxygen. They have adapted to generate energy through fermentation or anaerobic respiration. Some examples include clostridium and methanogens.
What are the characteristics of an anaerobic species?
Anaerobic species are organisms that can live and grow in environments without oxygen. They typically produce energy through fermentation or anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic species often thrive in environments such as deep sea vents, wetlands, and the human digestive system.
