Question

Select the chemical activity, chosen from the list below, that is

best described by the statement shown.
Either lactic acid or ethyl alcohol is produced as a waste
product of this process.
A
Dehydration synthesis
Aerobic respiration
B
Enzymatic hydrolysis
D
Anaerobic respiration

Answer 1

D Anaerobic respiration

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of anaerobic respiration is the formation of either lactic acid (lactate) or ethyl alcohol as a waste product.

• Anaerobic respiration is a process that occurs in the absence of oxygen gas.
• When oxygen is lacking in cells, glcolytic process follows the anaerobic path way.
• This process produces very little energy for the body.
• During a period of intense exercise, anaerobic respiration usually occurs.
