Answer:

B. produces as much energy as cell respiration.

Step-by-step explanation:

In alcoholic fermentation, glucose goes through glycolysis and produces only 2 ATP molecules. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in yeast. When yeast cells run out of oxygen they convert pyruvic acid to ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide. In cellular respiration 36 ATP molecules are produced as glucose goes through glycolysis.
