What are the two types of fermentation? Rewrite the question in your own words. What are they really asking? What is the correct answer and WHY?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the two types of fermentation, a rephrasing of what they are really asking about that topic, and to provide the correct answer along with an explanation for why it's correct, reflecting understanding of the process of photosynthesis in a plant cell.
Answer
Alcoholic and lactic acid fermentation.
The two types of fermentation are alcoholic and lactic acid fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation produces ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide, typically in yeast. Lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid, often in muscle cells. Both processes occur anaerobically to regenerate NAD+, allowing glycolysis to continue.
Answer for screen readers
The two types of fermentation are alcoholic and lactic acid fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation produces ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide, typically in yeast. Lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid, often in muscle cells. Both processes occur anaerobically to regenerate NAD+, allowing glycolysis to continue.
More Information
Fermentation allows cells to produce energy without oxygen by regenerating NAD+. Different organisms and cells use it for producing energy or specific products like alcohol or lactic acid.
Tips
Avoid confusing fermentation with glycolysis; fermentation is a separate anaerobic process following glycolysis.
