Term
where is lactic aid used? |
|
Definition
in the body after long periods of exercise. (when the body can't supply oxygen to the muscles, lactic acid fermentation occurs. a build up of this lactic acid causes soreness) also used in cheese, yogurt, ect |

Term
what is the point of fermentation? |
|
Definition
fermentation happens so that cells can regenerate the NAD+ needed to keep glycolysis going |
