When the oxygen supply runs short in heavy or prelonged excercise, muscles obtain most of their energy from an anaerobic (without oxygen) process called glycolysis. Yeast cells obtain energy under anaerobic conditions using a very similar process called Alcoholic Fermentation. Glycolysis is the chemical breakdown of glucose to lactic acid. This process makes energy available for cell activity in the form of a high-energy phosphate compound known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Alcoholic fermentation is identical to glycolysis except for the final step (Fig. 1). In alcoholic fermentation, pyruvic acid is broken down into ethanol and carbon dioxide. Lactic acid from glycolysis produces a feeling of tiredness; the products of alcoholic fermentation have been used in baking and brewing for centuries.

∙ 9y agoAnimal in the wild cannot produce alcohol by fermentation in their gut as the sugars are converted into volatile fatty acids. Yeast is also needed in the fermentation to produce the alcohol. Humans are the only animal that regularly produce alcohol by fermentation, but its external outside of the body.

∙ 9y agoNope. Under anaerobic (no oxygen) conditions, we make lactic acid to produce more ATP and convert it to energy. In yeast they make ethanol (alcohol) which is fermentation.

When does lactic acid fermentation occur in animals?
2+2=4 :))
What are the products of fermentation in plants and animals?
The products of plant fermentation are alcohol fermentation, ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide, or lactic acid fermentation. No further energy is gained for the cell.
Do animals have blood type?
yes animals do
How does cooperation among animals in a society promote the evolutionary success of individual animals?
Cooperation among animals in the wild seems to only occur among families of animals. It helps to promote reproductive success of certain groups of animals.
What type of animals cause population growth?
animals like u
Why does fermentation not occur in plants?

Which type of fermention occur in yeast?
Alcoholic Fermentation.
When does lactid acid and fermentation occur?
Lactic acid and fermentation occur during anaerobic metabolism.
Lactic acid fermentation is what type of process?
Lactic acid fermentation is an anaerobic process. This means that lactic acid is produced in the absence of oxygen. This usually occur in bacteria cells but can also occur in muscle cells.
What is priduced by animals during fermentation?
Lactic acid is produced by animals during fermentation .
Fermentation may occur in a muscle under what type of condition?
If oxygen is not available in the body especially muscle it leads to fermentation in an anaerobic respiration.
Does fermentation occur in mitochondria of cells?
No, fermentation occurs in the cytoplasm outside the mitochondria.
Where does lactic fermentation occur?
t
What is a fermentation type?
Alcoholic and Lactate fermentation
When does the Krebs cycle not occur?
if fermentation occurs.
