Question

Consider the two forms of fermentation: alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation. How do these two processes differ? A) Only alcohol fermentation produces ATP. B) Lactic acid is the reactant of lactic acid fermentation. C) Fermentation produces CO2 and ethanol while lactic acid fermentation produces lactate. D) Alcohol fermentation occurs in the cytoplasm while lactic acid fermentation takes place in the mitochondria.

Answer 1

the answer is c.) Fermentation produces CO2....

Answer 2

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Fermentation can be defined as the process by which single glucose molecule is broken and converted into two carbon dioxide molecule and two ethanol molecule.

It is used in bakery to give rise to dough as the carbon dioxide releases bubbles expanding the dough into foam.

In case of lactic acid fermentation the glucose is converted into energy which is used in metabolic processes and lactate is formed in the solution.
