occurs in the human body, this is caused by a succesion of anaerobic respiration, therefore not enough energy can be created due to the fact that there is a lack of oxygen to break those energy cells, therefore in order to somewhat 'compensate' the body fermentates the bi-products which are unable to carry on to further create energy for the body use. therefore latic acid is made- this is also the reasoning behind cramps etc. due to the fact anaerobic cellular respiration is occuring therefore not enoungh energy is created by the cells in order for movement or vital life processes.

Latic acid fermentation is useful in living creatures because?
Lactic acid fermentation is basically anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration is respiration which takes place in the absence of oxygen. Thus, it is a way of life in anaerobic organisms. Even in aerobic organisms, anaerobic respiration takes place when the concentration of oxygen is low. Thus it also helps anaerobic organisms to survive.
The main purpose of reduction of pyruvate to lactate during fermentation is to?
Alcoholic fermentation occurs in organisms such as yeast, as produces ethyl alcohol. Lactic acid fermentation occurs in animals such as humans and produces lactic acid instead of alcohol.
How do the two types of fermentation differ?
Aerobic fermentation occurs in an environment that contains air. Anaerobic fermentation occurs in one lacking air.
2 types of fermentation?
Two types of fermentation are alcohol fermentation and lactic-acid fermentation. Alcohol fermentation is the process in which 2 pyruvate molecules ,created by the means of glycosis, is further broken down into 2 ethanol molecules through alcohol fermentation. Lactic-acid fermentation is when the pyruvate molecules formed from glycosis is reduced to 2 lactate molecules.
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 does fermentation produse that is important to everyday life?
Latic Acid
What is the waste called that builds up when you exercise as a result of fermentation?
latic acid
What is the name of the fermentation used by muscle cells?
The type of fermentation that sometimes occurs in human muscle cells is Lactic Acid fermentation.
What do human and animal cells obtain through latic-acid fermentation during?
Oxygen.
How are latic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentatkon?
Lactid acid fermentation is anaerobic as it is utilized in situations of low oxygen and most commonly used by anaerobic bacteria
What Ethyl alcohol fermentation breaks down glucose into what two products?
carbon dioxide and latic acid
Ethyl alcohol fermentation breaks down glucose into what two products?
the products of ethanol fermentation are ethnol and CO2
Type of fermentation that occurs in muscle during rapid exercise?
Type of fermentation that occurs in muscles during rapid exercise? Answer: lactic acid fermentation
What are the two kinds of fermentation?
1.) Alcoholic fermentation 2.) Lactic acid fermentation
What do lactic acid fermentation occur in?
The fermentation of milk occurs to form curd, of course lactic acid is released.
Which fermentation sometimes occurs in a human?
lactic acid
Does latic acid cause from alcoholic fermetation?
Nopes. Lactic acid is formed during anaerobic respiration in humans and other animals. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out by yeast, and produces ethanol.
