it is anaerobic because it can make ATP without using oxygen, which is what anaerobic means: without oxygen. :)

Is alcoholic fermentation aerobic?

Yes. In more complex organism, in which aerobic respiration is the main process to make ATP, when your body does have enough oxygen it goes though anaerobic respiration. In simpler organisms, which don't require much ATP, anaerobic would be the main process.


What is the name of the process of resperation that does not require oxygen?

anaerobic respiration there is also fermentation, which is like anaerobic respiration but does not have an electron transport chain


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.


Process does not require oxygen?

The process that does not require oxygen is called anaerobic or fermentation. During anaerobic respiration, cells can still generate ATP (energy) from glucose by converting it into other products without using oxygen. This process is less efficient compared to aerobic respiration, which relies on oxygen.


Is wine made by aerobic or anaerobic fermentation?

Wine is typically made through anaerobic fermentation, where yeast convert sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide in the absence of oxygen. Oxygen exposure during fermentation can lead to off-flavors in the wine.

What are the two types of fermentation and why each is necessary?

Aerobic fermentation and anaerobic fermentation.


What is the difference between aerobic fermentation and anaerobic fermentation?

Diffrences between anaerobic and aerobic fermentation is aerobic occurs in the presence of oxygen and 2 molecules of adenisine triphosphate while anaerobic is in the absence of oxygen and produces 34 molecules of adenosine triphosphate. Lemme tell you all that there is no fermentation which is aerobic. In fact its will be wrong to classify fermentation process into aerobic and anaerobic. Its the respiration which can be aerobic or anaerobic.


What are the 2 main types of fermention?

Aerobic and anaerobic fermentation. In Aerobic fermentation oxygen is allowed inside the fermenter vessel. For anaerobic it is vice versa.


When fermentation take place without oxygen?

no, aerobic means a process that requires oxygen. a process that doesn't require oxygen is called anaerobic.


Why is it Because fermentation takes place in the absence of oxygen it is said to be?

It is said to be anaerobic, which means "without oxygen". The opposite of "anaerobic" is "aerobic" which means requiring oxygen.


Is alcohol fermentation anaerobic or aerobic?

alcoholic fermentation is anaerobic. It is done by yeast as it does not require oxygen for respiration.God bless!


What is fermentation the opposite of?

There is no opposite or reverse reaction, but fermentation is an anaerobic process, one not requiring oxygen. The aerobic equivalent would be respiration (oxidation).


What are main types of fermenters?

Aerobic fermentation and anaerobic fermentation are two main types.


What process produces more energy-the anaerobic pathway or the aerobic pathway?

The aerobic pathway produces more energy than the anaerobic pathway. Aerobic respiration generates a much higher yield of ATP molecules from glucose compared to anaerobic fermentation. Anaerobic metabolism is a less efficient process that produces ATP without the use of oxygen.


Is a process in which glucose is broken down into lactic acid and energy described as aerobic respiration?

No, lactic acid fermentation is anaerobic.
