Answer:
Alcohol fermentation is metabolic process where by lactate and ATPs are produced during in absence of oxygen
Lactic Acid fermentation is a metabolic process where by glucose is broken down to Alcohol, CO2 and energy(ATPs. The C02 is the waste product.
Step-by-step explanation:
Differences
Lactic acid fermentation is straight step from Pyruvate to Lactic acid
Alcoholic fermentation is a two way step- pyruvate to ethanal to ethanol
Endproducts
Lactic acid fermentation ; lactase and Energy
Alcoholic fermentation- C02 , Alcohol and energy
Enzymes
Lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate decarboxylase are the enzymes of lactic acid fermentation reactions
The two enzymes involved in alcoholic fermentation are; Pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase
Similarities.
→The two processes breakdown glucose to produce ATPs
→The main goal pf the two processes is to recycle NAD+ so that the process of glycolysis will not stop, but continues, for the NAD+ to return and reduced to NADH in glycolysis.
→Both process are exergonic., gives out heat energy
→Both produce the same number of ATPs, 4 ATPs of glycolysis.
→Both takes place in absence of oxygen
→Both takes place in Cystosol of cytoplasm
→Both is preceded with glycolsysis.
