Anaerobic Cellular Respiration

What is Fernentation ?

It is a Form of respiration in which Energy is extracted through Glycolysis

Fermentation does or doesn’t use Oxygen?

It doesn’t use Oxygen

Energetically speaking, what is the difference in energy between anaerobic and aerobic respiration

Anaerobic generates two ATP

Vrs

Aerobic respiration 38 ATP

How does the presence of Oxygen affects what tile of respiration will the cell use

Fermentation occurs when the oxygen levels within a cell are too low for aerobic cellular respiration.

Which are the final products of fermentation “anaerobic respiration “

Lactic Acid

Or

Ethanol

Apart from the Oxygen concentration, why is there energy difference between the two types of respiration?

On the Anaerobic only Glycolysis is performed

Whereas in the Aerobic we have the 4 stages.

In the Fermentation what happens with the electrons released from the partial brake down of the glucose ?

Are added directly to the Pyruvate molecule to produce Lactic acid Acid.

Why we can say you are on Fermentation when you do extra exercise 🤣?

Because the Lactic Acid that is produced when the cells don’t receive enough Oxygen due to the strong exercise
