In the absence of the gas oxygen, certain living things are capable of breaking down carbohydrates (starches and sugars) to form alcohol and carbon dioxide gas. This process is known as anaerobic respiration or fermentation, and it has been used for centuries in the production of certain foods and beverages.
What else can I help you with?
Fermentation in muscle cells produces?
Fermentation in muscle cells produces lactic acid. This happens when you have overworked your muscles, which can happen during exercise.
What does lactic acid fermentation occur in?
*muscle cells
Explain why muscles must use lactic acid fermentation instead of cellular respiration during intense physical activity?
Because mammalian muscle cells are genetically programmed to perform lactic acid fermentation, not ethanol fermentation.
Where does fermentation take place?
Fermentation typically takes place in specialized organelles within cells called mitochondria or in the cytoplasm of the cell. In the absence of oxygen, certain microorganisms and muscle cells can undergo fermentation to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
What places does lactic acid fermentation occur in?
*muscle cells
What type of fermentation releases energy from the muscle cells?
Lactic 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.
Why would muscle cells bother with fermentation?
Fermentation is a way to produce energy when there isn't enough oxygen available.
How do muscle cells get energy from glucose through the process of fermentation?
your muscle cells produce lactic acid or something like that. did you get that question on a worksheet? i did...
What is the waste product of fermentation in your muscle cells?
Lactic acid
What type of cell carries out lactic acid fermentation in humans?
muscle cells
Lactic acid fermentation occurs in muscle cells when what is low in supply?
oxygen
