What molecule is produced with the expenditure of nadh fermentation?
Lactate is produced in this way. It is a product of the NADH fermentation.
How many NADH are produced during fermentation?
The fermentation pathway itself does not generate NADH itself. In fact NAD+ builds up. Glycolysis uses the NADH when oxidating carbon substrates and fermentation is used to regenerate the NAD+ and thus the cycle continues. If fermentation did not exist, NADH would build up and the cell would not be able to oxidize carbon anymore. The cell would die. In the case of respiration (aerobic or anaerobic) the cell will replenish its NAD+ pool the electron transport chain (oxidative phosphorylation). This generates even more potential to make ATP by pumping protons out of the cell using the energy generated from NADH -> NAD via NADH dehydrogenase. This gradient can be utilized by allowing the protons to flow back into the cell through ATPase, generating ATP. The utilization of NADH to pump protons out of the cell is the sole reason why respiration generates 36-38 ATP while fermentation generates 2 ATP per glucose. After much rambling, the point to take home is that the main job of fermentation in the cell is the replenish the NAD+ pool so that glycolysis can continue which drives biosynthesis.
What is the euqation for lactic acid fermentation after glycolysis?
Pyruvate+NADH--->Lactate + NAD+ +ATP
What is the equation for alcoholic fermentation after glycolysis?
The product of glycolysis is pyruvate. In alcoholic (ethanol) fermentation, pyruvate is converted into ethanol and carbon dioxide. The first step is decarboxylation, catalyzed by pyruvate decarboxylase: CH3COCOO- --> CH3CHO pyruvate --> acetaldehyde Then acetaldehyde is reduced to ethanol; this step is catalyzed by alcohol dehydrogenase and involves the oxidation of NADH+ + H+ to NADH: CH3CHO --> CH3CH2OH
How does fermention allow the producetion of ATP to continue?
Two molecules of NADH + H+ are produced in glycolysis, and during fermentation, they become oxidized to NAD+ (one of the requirements for glycolysis to occur). Thus, both lactid acid and alcoholic fermentation allow for NAD+ to be continually regenerated for use in glycolysis, where a total of 4 ATP molecules are produced (a net gain of 2 ATP).

Why is NADH such a integral part of Glycolysis and Fermentation?
because it is
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.

What is the chemical equation for alcoholic fermentation after lactic after glycolysis?
The chemical equation for alcoholic fermentation is: Pyruvate + NADH -> Ethanol + CO2 + NAD+
What are the fermentation reactants?
In animals, fermentation is referred to as lactic acid fermentation. Its reactants include a sugar molecule, pyruvate and NADH. It produces lactic acid and releases energy.

What is the electron donor in lactic acid fermentation?
During lactic acid fermentation of glucose,Pyr + NADH --> Lactic acid + NAD(+)During this process NADH donates it's 2 electrons associated with its proton of H, pyruvate acceptsthoseelectrons, and lactic acid is the final reduced product
What is the euqation for lactic acid fermentation after glycolysis?
Pyruvate+NADH--->Lactate + NAD+ +ATP
What occurs during fermentation?
Decrease in NADH, pyruvate is broken down into carbon dioxide and acetylaldehyde, NADH is oxidized to NAD+, and acetylaldehyde is reduced to make ethanol.
