lactic acid fermentation.
A type of anaerobic respiration in which pyruvate is converted to lactate, producing ATP and NAD.
Anaerobic respiration allows for the regeneration of
NAD so that glycolysis can continue and some ATP is still produced.
anaerobic res is …. speed
faste
When yeast respire anaerobically they regenerate their
NAD through:
decarboxylate the pyruvate, releasing a molecule of carbon dioxide.
This converts the pyruvate into ethanal.
The ethanal is then reduced by the reduced NAD into ethanol, regenerating the NAD for glycolysis and the production of ATP to continue
This is known as alcohol fermentation.
The yeast feeds on the
anaerobic res in bread
sugars in the dough and respires anaerobically as it uses up any available oxygen quickly. The carbon dioxide produced in the dough creates the bubbles that cause the dough to rise. Any ethanol produced evaporates away during the baking process.
anaerobic for alcohol
In brewing, the yeast feeds on the sugars from the material being fermented eg grapes
Anaerobic conditions are maintained by fermenting in a sealed container or fermenter. The ethanol produced is the desired product of this fermentation process. The carbon dioxide may also be used to make some of these products carbonated.
Substrate-level phosphorylation is a
biochemical process where a phosphate group is directly transferred from a substrate molecule to ADP (adenosine diphosphate), resulting in the formation of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
Oxidative phosphorylation is the process by which
cells use enzymes to oxidize nutrients, releasing energy to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the main energy currency of the cell

phosphorylated
introduce a phosphate group into (a molecule or compound).
why do all cells need to produce atp
because atp is not a mobile molecule so all cells need a constant supply of it
is atp a stable molecule?
no, which is why it can get energy so redily
at high concentrations ethanol can be
toxic to yeast
