Answer is: a product of a fermentation reaction is ethanol (C₂H₅OH).
Fermentation is a metabolic process in which ethanol is produced from sugar in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic digestion).
Fermentation occurs in yeast, bacteria and in oxygen-starved muscle cells.
Fermentation is a way of extracting energy from molecules and it is the oldest metabolic pathway.
