What is lactic acid fermentaion?

Answer 1

ALCHOLIC FERMENTATION:-

It occurs in bacteria,yeast etc. In this type of anaerobic resipiration pyruvic acid is further broken down into alcohol.

Lactic fermentation:-

It occurs in skeletal muscles of humans and other animals during extreme physical activities (when oxygen supply is not sufficent) and in bacteria present in milk. In lactic acid fermentation pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid.This process is involved in the production of yogurt.

Answer 2

Lactic acid fermentation is a metabolic process where glucose is converted into lactic acid in the absence of oxygen. This process is carried out by some bacteria and fungi, including lactobacilli, and is utilized in various food production processes such as yogurt and sauerkraut fermentation.

Answer 3

Lactose fermentation is a process that converts sugar into lactic acid. This is usually done in yogurt giving it a sour taste.

Answer 4

glucose firstly converts into pyruvic acid. Pyruvic acid or pyruvate is further reduced to lactic acid. Here no evolution of CO2 takes place

Answer 5

Yes; lactic acid is a product of Lactic acid fermentation. :)
