There are two main types of fermentation. One kind, things like yeast do, releases Co2 (Carbon Dioxide) and the other kind, our muscle cells do, releases lactic acid. Fermentation is anaerobic respiration and lactic acid is a product.

Name one way lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation are different.?

One way lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation are different is the end products they produce. Lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid, while alcohol fermentation produces ethanol.


What are the types of fermantation?

There are two main types of fermentation: alcoholic fermentation, which produces alcohol and carbon dioxide, and lactic acid fermentation, which produces lactic acid. Alcoholic fermentation is commonly used in the production of beer and wine, while lactic acid fermentation is used in the production of yogurt and sauerkraut.


How are lactic acid fermentation and alchoholic fermentation similar?

Alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are similar because glucose is oxidized to two molecules of pyruvic acid. The difference between them is that alcohol fermentation yield two molecules of ATP also.


What do both lactic fermentation and alcoholic fermentation produce?

Both lactic fermentation and alcoholic fermentation produce energy in the form of ATP for cells. Lactic fermentation results in the production of lactic acid, while alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and carbon dioxide as byproducts.


How are lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation different?

alcohol is stronger


What are the two kinds of fermentation?

The two main kinds of fermentation are alcoholic fermentation, which produces ethanol and carbon dioxide, and lactic acid fermentation, which produces lactic acid. Alcoholic fermentation is commonly used in brewing and winemaking, while lactic acid fermentation is used in the production of foods like yogurt and sauerkraut.


In what ways are alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation similar, and how do they differ from each other?

Alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are both types of anaerobic processes that produce energy for cells. They are similar in that they both involve the breakdown of glucose to produce energy and end products. However, they differ in the final byproducts produced. Alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and carbon dioxide, while lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid.


What are two types of fermentation and explain?

the two main types of fermentation are alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation. The two main types of fermentation are: 1.) Alcoholic fermentation 2.) Lactic acid fermentation


Two different types of fermentation?

Fermentation is sometimes known as anaerobic respiration - because it usually occurs in the absence of oxygen. However, fermentation is the extraction of energy by oxidation of organic compounds. It does not necessarily have to occur in anaerobic conditions.


What do aerobic respiration and lactic acid fermentation have in common besides the production of ATP?

Both aerobic respiration and lactic acid fermentation involve the breakdown of glucose to produce ATP without the need for oxygen. However, they differ in the final products formed: aerobic respiration produces carbon dioxide and water, while lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid.


What is the difference between ethanol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation?

lactic acid fermentation, is an enzyme converts pyruvic acid made during glycolysis into another three-carbon compound. Alcoholic fermentation, is to convert pyruvic acid into ethyl alcohol.


Alchoholic fermentation and Lactic Acid fermentation?

Yes? lactic acid fermentation produces only lactic acid alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and co2
