Fermentation and cellular respiration both begin with diverse types of energy sources, inorganic ones like ammonia or organic ones like glucose, however how they convert the energy source into ATP is different, as well as the amount of ATP yielded by both. Any type of respiration, aerobic or anaerobic, will involve an election transport chain while fermentation does not. Also the yield of ATP varies from about 38-32 for aerobic and aerobic respiration, respectively, while fermentation only yields about 2.

What do cellular rrespiration and fermentation have in common?

The reason that they alike is because they are both trying to produce ATP for your body, but if Cellular Respiration fails, then they resort to Fermentation to get the job done! Hope that that was helpful! Julian


What molecule does cellular respiration start with?

Glucose and oxygen begin the process of respiration.


Compare cellular respiration and fermentation?

like respiration, fermentation begins in the cytoplasm. Again, as the glucose molecules are broken down, energy is released. But the simple molecules from the break down of glu- cose do not move into the mitochondria!!!


The products of photosynthesis that begin cellular respiration are?

The products of photosynthesis that begin cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen. Glucose is broken down in the process of cellular respiration to release energy, and oxygen is used as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain to produce ATP.


What does cellular respiration need in order to begin?

Glucose and oxygen


Does cellular respiration take in energy?

In order for cellular respiration to begin, two ATP molecules must be used up in order to breakdown the glucose molecule. Fortunately, the net gain of ATP from the first stage of cellular respiration, glycolysis, is 2 ATP. So even if oxygen is not present and fermentation has to occur, ATP is still made and not lost. However, if cellular respiration proceeds to the Krebs Cycle and carries out it's desired function, then a net gain of 36 ATP molecules will be made.


What are the products of the Calvin cycle and how are they usd?

The only product of the Calvin Cycle is 1 molecule of glucose every two turns. It is used to begin the process of Cellular respiration through Glycolysis and is basically used for food to create ATP.


What is a reactant required to begin cellular respiration?

NADH and FADH 2 among other molecules. Where do these molecules come from


Will germinating pea seeds carry out cellular respiration?

Yes. Pea and bean seeds may even begin germinating during the experiment. Main concepts All cells (plants and animals) perform cellular respiration to maintain homeostasis and grow.


Where does the process of photosynthesis begin and end in a cell?

Cellular respiration begins with the transportation of glycolysis into the mitochondria. The final step of cellular respiration will either be fermentation or an electron transport chain depending on whether it is anaerobic or aerobic respiration.


What is the function of cellular resperation?

Cellular respiration is the production of energy within a cell. Aerobic respiration requires O2 but is significantly more efficient than anaerobic respiration (without oxygen). In humans we cannot maintain life on anaerobic respiration alone, it is used for short periods of time to maintain small amounts of ATP that are required to begin aerobic respiration.


During rapid exercise how do your muscles produce ATP?

Fueled by the metabolism of sugar, the ATP byproducts (ADP) are reconstituted into ATP molecules. Use of ATP energy requires no oxygen - when the ATP is depleted the muscle cells must use cellular respiration to obtain energy and once the muscle is at rest the ATP stores are replenished.
