No, Respiration releases more energy than fermentation. i read it in my science book dont know why though

Ferementation release only 2 ATPs. Aerobic respiration produce 36 ATP molecules

What term refers to the production of energy by a cell without using oxygen?
The process of converting glucose (C6H1206) to energy in the form of ATP is known as anaerobic respiration in humans. The pathway involves glucose as a reactant yielding 2 lactic acids and 2 ATPs.
How do you produce energy without oxygen?
They use anaerobic fermentation to release energy for cell use. Anaerobic fermentation breaks down glucose (sugar) just like aerobic respiration (which requires oxygen) but does not need oxygen. The drawback is that there is a much smaller yield of usable energy than aerobic respiration. You get much less energy per molecule of sugar. Also the molecule of glucose is not completely broken down like it is in aerobic respiration. Fermentation breaks down a six carbon glucose molecule into shorter molecules of alcohols or acids such as ethyl alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide. This is how yeast makes bread dough rise - the yeast use fermentation to break down sugar for energy, the waste product carbon dioxide forms bubbles in the gluten matrix and the bread rises! It also produces alcohol which is why bread smells sort of beery when it starts to bake. Or you can skip the baking add more water and let the yeast make beer!
what substance do cells need to get energy from food?
When you become more active your cells need more oxygen and glucose, and when your body releases energy, glucose or other organic fuels in the presence of air is called aerobic respiration. aerobic respiration is in the absence of air.
Which type of energy releases more energy?
Talikng releases more energy because cars release carbon monoxide.
Is fire a source of heat?
In cellular respiration, ATP is created. This energy is created with energy from other energy sources, and is used more readily by the rest of the cell.
What release more energy respiration or fermentation?
Respiration.
Do fermentation release more energy than respiration?
no it does not
What are two ways a cell can get energy from food?
Cells can release energy in two basic processes: Cellular respiration and fermentation. Cellular respiration requires oxygen but fermentation does not. Cellular respiration releases MUCH more usable energy then fermentation does.
Does fermentation or respiration release more energy for an athlete's muscles?
Respiration does actually because the energy does a nucleic acid which makes the energy and mitochondria has to do with it to.
What releases more energy fermentation or cellular respiration?
Respiration
Does fermentation produce more energy per glucose than cellular respiration?
No.
Is cellular respiration more or less efficient than fermentation?
Cellular respiration is more efficient than fermentation. Cellular respiration produces approximately 36-38 ATP molecules, while fermentation produces only 2 ATP, which is a significant loss in usable energy.
Which releases more energy aerobic or cellular?
That's not a full question, but I think I know what you are asking. Aerobic respiration > anaerobic respiration > fermentation.
Fermentation is not as energy productive as respiration because?
pyruvate is more reduced than CO2; it still contains much of the energy from glucose
Which gives the greater yield of ATP alcoholic fermintation or cellular respiration?
In aerobic respiration which incorporates oxygen, 36 molecules are produced per 1 molecule of glucose and in anaerobic respiration (fermentation) where no oxygen is incorporated, only 2 molecules are produced per 1 molecule of glucose
Compare aerobic respiration and fermentation in terms of efficiency of obtaining energy from glucose?
ATP or adenosine triphosphate provides the energy for the cells. Aerobic respiration is more efficient because it produces 32 ATP, while fermentation only produces 2 ATP.
Why do we do cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is the process by which cells produce ATP for energy. Also, cellular respiration is much more efficient than fermentation, the process by which single celled organisms. (Cellular respiration produces 18 times more ATP than fermentation) Essentially, without cellular respiration is what keeps the cells in your body functioning.
