Answer:

Lactic Acid Fermentation

Step-by-step explanation:

Lactic acid fermentation is a metabolic process by which glucose or other six-carbon sugars are converted into cellular energy and the metabolite lactate, which is lactic acid in solution. Lactate, which is just the deprotonated form of lactic acid, gives the process its name. The bacteria that make yogurt carry out lactic acid fermentation, as do the red blood cells in your body, which don't have mitochondria and thus can't perform cellular respiration.

hope this helps have a nice day
