How does fermentation enable glycosis to continue producing ATP?
Wiki User
∙ 7y ago
During fermentation, cells convert NADH to NAD+ by passing high-energy electrons back to pyruvic acid. This action converts NADH back into the electron carrier NAD+, allowing glycolysis to continue producing a steady supply of ATP.

∙ 7y agoWhen certain organism work where oxygen is not produced so in result anaerobic respiration will need help from a process called fermentation. Glycolysis as you know requires NAD+
so since glycolysis does not use oxygen, fermentation helps glycolysis take place. Fermentation helps produce energy that is just enough to help re-synthesize NAD+
So glycolysis can continue to produce ATP.

What are the products of lactate fermentation and alcoholic fermentation?
Both alcohol and lactate fermentation enable cells to produce ATP without using oxygen; they are the anaerobic (lacking in oxygen) alternative to cellular respiration. This is because they are extensions of glycolysis that can generate ATP solely by substrate-level phosphorylation, specifically by regenerating NAD+ by transferring electrons from NADH to pyruvate or pyruvate derivatives. NAD+ can then be reused in glycolysis to oxidize sugar. Remember that glycolysis uses two net molecules of ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation.Lactate fermentation, also known as lactic acid fermentation, occurs when NADH reduces pyruvate directly to form lactate as an end product, hence the name "lactate fermentation." More specifically, if one glucose molecule goes through glycolysis, 2 net ATP and 2 pyruvate molecules are produced and 2 NAD+ molecules are consumed. 2 NADH molecules and 2 H+ come and reduce the 2 pyruvate molecules, forming 2 lactate molecules and 2 NAD+. The 2 NAD+ molecules are then reused in glycolysis, enabling the cell to produce ATP even in the absence of oxygen. Lactate fermentation is used by some fungi and bacteria as well as in the dairy industry to produce yogurt in cheese. Another fun fact about lactate fermentation is that human muscle cells use lactate fermentation to make ATP when oxygen is scarce, such as during strenuous exercise. The resulting accumulation of lactate is partly what causes the muscle fatigue and pain that can result from exercise. But don't worry, the blood carries away the lactate to the liver where the lactate is converted back to pyruvate.Alcohol fermentation occurs when pyruvate is first converted to acetaldehyde, a 2-carbon compound, through the release of carbon dioxide from the pyruvate. Then, NADH reduces the acetaldehyde to ethanol. A more detailed look shows us that just like lactate fermentation, glycolysis produces 2 ATP and 2 pyruvate from one glucose molecule. However, unlike lactate fermentation, each pyruvate molecule releases a carbon dioxide, resulting in 2 carbon dioxide molecules and 2 acetaldehyde molecules (acetaldehyde = pyruvate - carbon dioxide). Then, similar to lactate fermentation 2 NADH and 2 H+ reduce the 2 acetaldehyde molecules, forming 2 ethanol molecules and 2 NAD+ and regenerating the supply of NAD+ needed to continue glycolysis. Alcohol fermentation is often used in bacteria in anaerobic conditions as well as in yeast. Interestingly, the carbon dioxide that is released in alcohol fermentation generated by a baker's yeast is what allows the bread to rise!
What would enable you to detect aneuploidy?

Glycoproteins
What do the three semicircular canals in the inner ear enable us to do?
They enable us to distinguish 'up' from 'down' - and help up maintain our balance.
Purpose of Fingerprints?

What conditions enable glycolysis to continue during fermentation?
Fermentation enables glycolysis to continue as long as the glucose supply lasts. Glycolysis enables the fermentation to continues under an anaerobic conditions.
What is a fermentation vessel?
A vessel that will enable the action of the microoganisms and typically refers to the fermentation of sugar to alcohol using yeast, but can include other processes such as the making of yogurt or pickels. In its strictest sense fermentation may be considered the energy-yielding anaerobic (without air) metabolic breakdown of a nutrient molecule, such as glucose, without net oxidation. The fermentation process can also be carried out in the presence of air (aerobic process) Fermentation may also be used much more broadly to refer to the bulk growth of microorganisms on some medium (solid state fermentation) and the vessel to contain this process would also be a fermentation vessel.

How does fermentation work?
Fermentation is a metabolic by which sugars turn to acids, gases, or alcohol using yeast or bacteria. The sugar molecules break down, and the energy generated from that reaction enable the other molecules to bind to new molecules, which creates the acids, gases, or alcohols depending on what the surrounding molecules are.
What will Web-based technologies enable people to do?

What does the word mintain mean?
The word maintain can mean to cause or enable to continue and also refers to providing a living thing with the necessities to exist or live.
What is difference between enable secret and enable password?
the difference between the Enable Secret and the Enable password and that the Enable Secret password supersedes the Enable password if it's set.
Why profitablity important?
In terms of business success, profits will enable one to continue the business. Now profits may not appear all at once. But working hard at the business, being friendly to customers will go a long way towards making profits which means you can continue with the business.

What is strobe input in multiplexer?
It is the enable line. Used to enable the multiplexer to function. For low enable multiplexers, strobe is set to 0 to enable the multiplexer whereas in high enable multiplexers, it is set 1 to enable the multiplexer.
