During fermentation, two products can be formed, either lactic acid or ethanol + CO2. What is the reason for converting pyruvate into these alternative byproducts?
Adi S.
During anaerobic exercise or fermentation, the pyruvate produced by glycolysis is further processed to give lactate (in muscle) or ethanol and carbon dioxide (in yeast). When we ingest ethanol, it is metabolized by liver alcohol dehydrogenase. Illustrate each (3) of these reactions including structures, enzymes, and byproducts
Rudra S.
End products of lactic acid fermentation. Starting with one molecule of glucose, the most likely end products are: - 2 lactate, 2 ATP - 2 ethanol, 2 carbon dioxide, 2 ATP - 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP - 2 acetate, 2 carbon dioxide, 2 ATP
