Respiration uses oxygen to produce energy, which is crucial for the efficient breakdown of glucose into ATP. In contrast, fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen and relies on anaerobic processes to convert glucose into energy, resulting in byproducts like lactic acid or alcohol. This lack of oxygen limits the energy yield from fermentation compared to aerobic respiration.

How is fermentation is similar to cellular respiration?

Both make ATP.


Do cells make ethanol as a waste of cellular respiration?

No, ethanol is a byproduct of fermentation...not aerobic or anaerobic respiration


What are the two methods producers use to make their own energy molecules?

Respiration and fermentation which make up photosynthesis.


Which of the following is a product of cellular respiration and not fermentation?

ATP is a product of cellular respiration and not fermentation. Fermentation produces lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts, while cellular respiration produces ATP as the main energy currency of the cell.


What is a similarity between alcohol fermentation and aerobic respiration?

The similarity is they both will make ATP (energy) as a product though the alcohol fermentation makes very less.


How fermentation is in the food industry?

Alcohols are made using fermentation. Fermentation creates the bubbles that make cakes and bread airy and light.


Which organism uses sunlight or eats food to make energy?

Organisms like plants use sunlight through photosynthesis to make energy, while animals and other organisms consume food to obtain energy through processes like respiration or fermentation.


How is fermentation used in the food industry?

When bacteria undergo anaerobic respiration, they ferment, producing an alcohol functional group. This is used in many bacterially cultured dairy produts like yogurt and cheese. This is also obviously a critical part of alcohol production, though that isn't exactly food.


What important molecule is regenerated in fermentation and respiration?

Both of these processes make ATP which are required by cells as a source of energy. Fermentation is very inefficient at producing ATP compared to aerobic respiration, but ATP is still produced, nonetheless.


Do plants go through the process of respiration?

They have tO go through respiration to make food


What are two differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

aerobic respiration accur in the presence of oxygen,but anarobic resoiration accur in the absence of oxygen.aerobic respiration produes ATP which is the energy currency needed to perform various cellular functions.anaerobic repiration happens in the muscles during strenous exercising because the body needs a great amount of oxygen that aerobic respiration cant fulfill in the same rate,but it prduces lactate so it only accur for very short time.the lactate forms an "oxygen debt" that the body have to pay back as soon as possible to get rid of this lactate.also anerobic respiration happens in yeast, again if you deprive them of oxygen they respire anaerobicly producing ethanol by fermentation.


How does the amount of energy resulting from fermentation compare with that of aerobic respiration?

Oh, dude, so like, fermentation is like the lazy cousin of aerobic respiration. It's all like, "I'll just quickly make some ATP without needing oxygen," but it's not very efficient, so it's like the fast food of energy production. Aerobic respiration, on the other hand, is like the fancy gourmet meal that takes longer but gives you way more energy in the end.
