Lesson Summary. 1  Fermentation is a way of making ATP from glucose without oxygen. 2  Lactic acid fermentation changes pyruvic acid to lactic acid and forms NAD 3  + . Alcohol fermentation changes pyruvic acid to ethanol and carbon dioxide and forms NAD 4  + . Aerobic respiration produces much more ATP than anaerobic respiration. A major advantage of aerobic respiration is the amount of energy it releases. Without oxygen, organisms can just split glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. This releases only enough energy to make two ATP molecules. With oxygen, organisms can break down glucose all the way to carbon dioxide Advantages of Aerobic Respiration. A major advantage of aerobic respiration is the amount of energy it releases. Without oxygen, organisms can just split glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. This releases only enough energy to make two ATP molecules. With oxygen, organisms can break down glucose all the way to carbon dioxide Anaerobic respiration is the process by which non-oxygen dependent  organisms breath. It is mostly commonly used in the process of  fermentation.    Anaerobic respiration is respiration that uses electron acceptors  other than oxygen. Anaerobic respiration can be found in protozoans  and bacteria. Anaerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration. So they need to use a different form of anaerobic respiration. glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide (+ energy released). When no oxygen is present, plants can temporarily use anaerobic respiration to create energy. It is not as efficient, since the glucose molecule does not break down completely, but rather changes into ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide and creates only two molecules of energy, or adenosine triphosphate. ATP is a means of storing energy in the form of sugars at the cellular level. Plants cannot keep up the anaerobic respiration process for long, only a few days at most. The parts of the plants that were using this type of respiration eventually die. Glycolysis. Aerobic and anaerobic respiration both begin with glycolysis, the first stage in the breakdown of glucose. This process generates two molecules of ATP, a major energy carrier molecule. Glycolysis is an anaerobic process and can then be followed by an aerobic or anaerobic process.  Microorganisms. Anaerobic respiration takes place in yeast and some bacteria, producing ethanol and carbon dioxide. They have been used in the making of many foods such as bread, yoghurt and vinegar, Lactic acid bacteria are the key ingredient in yogurt production as they they initiate the fermentation process. ATP is a means of storing energy in the form of sugars at the cellular level. Plants cannot keep up the anaerobic respiration process for long, only a few days at most. The parts of the plants that were using this type of respiration eventually die. In skeletal muscles, the waste product is lactic acid. This type of fermentation is called lactic acid fermentation. In yeast, the waste products are ethanol and carbon dioxide. This type of fermentation is known as alcoholic or ethanol fermentation. Anaerobic respiration is less efficient at using the energy from glucose since 2 ATP are produced during anaerobic respiration per glucose, compared to the 30 ATP per glucose produced by aerobic respiration. Alcohol fermentation is pretty similar to lactic acid fermentation. Instead of the pyruvate being reduced to lactate, it is reduced to ethanol, and lets off two molecules of CO 2 along the way. Two kinds of organisms use alcohol fermentation: bacteria and yeast (yeast are fungi, btw).  An important way of making ATP without oxygen is called fermentation. It involves glycolysis but not the other two stages of aerobic respiration. Many bacteria and yeasts carry out fermentation. People use these organisms to make yogurt, bread, wine, and biofuels. Human muscle cells also use fermentation. This occurs when muscle cells cannot get oxygen fast enough to meet their energy needs through aerobic respiration. There are two types of fermentation: lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation. Both types of fermentation are described below.
