Question
Anaerobic respiration is also called :
restoration
fragmentation
multiplication
fermentation
Solution
D.
fermentation
Anaerobic respiration is respiration using electron acceptors other than molecular oxygen (O2).
After glycolysis, if oxygen is absent (anaerobic respiration), the pyruvic acid forms ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH) and carbon dioxide (CO2) without the help of any cell organelle. This anaerobic process is called fermentation.
