Term
How does ATP store and release energy?
Definition
ATP is stored in chemical bonds and is released when the last phosphate is lost and ATP becomes ADP.
Term
Fementation
Definition
Fermentation is an anaerobic process in which energy can be released from glucose even though oxygen is not available.Itoccurs in yeast cells, and a form of fermentation takes place in bacteria and in the muscle cells of animals.
Term
The two types of fermentation
Definition


1.) Alcoholic fermentation

_1)_Ethanol_(alcoholic)_fermentation__-_Produces_ethanol_as_in_alcoholic_beverages__-_Produces_CO2_as_in_bread_dough_and_naturally_carbonated_beverages.__2)_Homolactic_(lactic_acid)_fermentation__-_Produces_sour-tasting_lactic_acid_as_in_yogurt.__-_Does_not_produce_gas."> Produces ethanol as in alcoholic beverages
- Produces CO2 as in bread dough and naturally carbonated beverages.

2.) Lactic acid fermentation

_1)_Ethanol_(alcoholic)_fermentation__-_Produces_ethanol_as_in_alcoholic_beverages__-_Produces_CO2_as_in_bread_dough_and_naturally_carbonated_beverages.__2)_Homolactic_(lactic_acid)_fermentation__-_Produces_sour-tasting_lactic_acid_as_in_yogurt.__-_Does_not_produce_gas.">- Produces sour-tasting lactic acid as in yogurt.
- Does not produce gas.
