No they are not the same. One is an acid while one is a base.

How do living organisms in humans acquire energy from organic molecules?
Most of them do it exactly the same your own cells do it - oxidizing hydrogen in mitochondria. A few use fermentation (sugar to lactic acid).
What is the relationship between glycolysis and fermentation?
The two processes, fermentation and glycolysis, use the same pathways to convert glucose to pyruvic acid (see related links). However, in yeast under anaerobic conditions, the alcohol fermentation process* differs by a single additional step, in which the pyruvic acid is converted to ethanol (ethyl alcohol). * This process differs from the fermentation that occurs within cells. Although the cellular process also uses the pyruvic acid from glycolisis, ethanol or lactic acid is commonly produced.
What forms when water mixes with carbon dioxide gas in the air or soil?
A weak acid called Carbonic Acid form. Fun Fact: This is the same weak acid that is found in many soft drinks.
Would a baseball player running to first base and a cross-country skier use the same or different pathways to release energy?
nope! the baseball player would use lactic acid fermentation because it is a really quick run and oxygen cannot be used and the runner would used energy stored from fats because its over a long period of time.
What is meaning of synonyms give example?
A synonym is a word that means the same thing or close to the same thing as another word. i.e: horrible and terrible
What is the differences between anaerobic threshold and lactate threshold?
Lactate Threshold and Anaerobic Threshold (also known as the Onset of Blood Lactate Accumulation OBLA) are very similar and for most intents and purposes are referred to as the same thing. Lactate Threshold is the point at which lactic acid produce in the muscle during glycolysis is not metabolised as fast as it is being produced. Anaerobic Threshold is the result of this Lactate Threshold, after Lactate Threshold occurs the extra lactic acid from the muscle then acuminates into the blood, once Blood Lactate (BL) level reaches 4 mmol/L it is defined as Anaerobic Threshold or OBLA. Additionally, this Lactic acid is then Broken into lactate and acid (H+ ions). The lactate is recycled and used as an energy source, while the H+ ions are neutralised in the blood, with a by-product being CO2, the CO2 then needs to be expelled through ventilation, this is called Ventilatory Threshold (VT) and is characterised by a sudden heavy ventilation. Put simply Lactate Threshold, Anaerobic Threshold and Ventilatory Threshold happen in a cascade chain and each threshold usually occurs soon after the one before it.

What are the two main types of lactic acid?
The two main types of lactic acid are L-lactic acid and D-lactic acid. They are optical isomers, meaning they have the same chemical formula but differ in the arrangement of atoms. L-lactic acid is the form produced in the human body during strenuous exercise, while D-lactic acid is produced by certain bacteria.
What are the reactants in animal fermentation?
Pyruvate and NADH because of the different strains and ways of metabolic , the products generated by different sorts are not same in which lactic acid fermentation is divided into 3 types ,the same type of lactic acid fermentation ,abnormal fermentation of lactic acid and bifidobecterium fermentation
Can lactic acid come from rice milk?
No, lactic acid is typically produced during the fermentation process of dairy milk or other lactose-containing products by lactic acid bacteria. Rice milk, being plant-based, does not contain lactose and therefore does not produce lactic acid in the same way.
What is the pH number of lactic acid?
As with any acid, that depends entirely on its concentration. The greater the concentration (until saturation) the lower the pH. Lactic acid is a "middle of the road" weak acid; all in equal concentrations, lactic acid is stronger than citric, weaker than acetic, and about the same as formic.
What are the physiological factors that may alter the amount of lactic acid accumulation in the same athlete?
Lactic acid is a byproduct of energy use in the muscle fibers. It can result in a cramp or weakness. The physiological factors that may alter the amount of lactic acid accumulation can be the stress or pressure to win the game.
What functional group does lactic acid belong?
Lactic acid belongs to the carboxylic acid functional group. This functional group consists of a carbonyl group (C=O) and a hydroxyl group (OH) attached to the same carbon atom.
How does the energy system recover?
The lactic acid energy system relies on the breakdown of glycogen to produce energy. As it does not require oxygen to break down glycogen a by-product called lactic acid is formed. If enough lactic acid is accumulated then the body begins to fatigue. To recover, the lactic acid requires oxygen. Once oxgen is present the lactic acid can be converted back to pyruvic acid which can once again be used to produce energy. Therefore to speed up recovery of the lactic system an "active"recovery at a low intencity is recommended. This then employs the use of the aerobic energy system which requires oxygen to be transported to the working muscles, and at the same time removing the fatiguing lactic acid.
What is the PH of lactic acid?
As with any acid, that depends entirely on its concentration. The greater the concentration (until saturation) the lower the pH. Lactic acid is a "middle of the road" weak acid; all in equal concentrations, lactic acid is stronger than citric, weaker than acetic, and about the same as formic.
What is different between the two types of fermentation?
There are two types of fermentation: Alcoholic Fermentation and Lactic Acid Fermentation. Both types have the same reactants: Pyruvic acid and NADH, both of which are products of glycolysis. In alcoholic fermentation, the major products are alcohol and carbon dioxide. In lactic acid fermentation, the major product is lactic acid. For both types of fermentation, there is a side product: NAD+ which is recycled back to glycolysis so that small amounts of ATP can continue to be produced in the absence of oxygen.
If fermentation is similar to the process of cellular respiration but missing what key ingredient?
oxygen. the same goes for lactic acid
Is sulfuric and muratic acid the same?
Muratic acid is another name for hydrochloric acid, so it is not the same thing as sulfuric acid.
