Fermentation (3)

Biology

Not quite remember

I easily remember

Fermentation (1)

The breakdown process of glucose is incomplete without oxygen or in limited oxygen conditions

Fermentation (2)

Fermentation occurs in cytoplasm

Fermentation (3)

Fermentation does not produce water

Fermentation (4)

In fermentation, glucose is not oxidised completely into ethanol and carbon dioxide or lactic acid

Fermentation (5)

In fermentation, one molecule of glucose generates 210 kJ (alcoholic fermentation) or 150 kJ (lactic acid fermentation) of energy

Examples of microorganisms and food produced by the fermentation process (1)

- Organism: Saccharomyces - Fermentation products: CO2, ethanol - Example: wine, beer

Examples of microorganisms and food produced by the fermentation process (2)

- Organism: Aspergillus - Fermentation products: lactic acid - Example: soy sauce

Examples of microorganisms and food produced by the fermentation process (3)

- Organism: Acetobacter - Fermentation product: acetic acid - Example: vinegar

Site where the fermentation process usually takes place (1)

Human muscle cells

Site where the fermentation process usually takes place (2)

Some bacteria
