1 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation KEY CONCEPT Fermentation allows the production of a small amount of ATP without oxygen.

2 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation If no oxygen is available, cells can obtain energy through the process of anaerobic respiration. A common anaerobic process is fermentation. Fermentation is not an efficient process and results in the formation of far fewer ATP molecules than aerobic respiration. There are two primary fermentation processes: 1.Lactic Acid Fermentation 2.Alcohol Fermentation

3 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation Lactic acid fermentation occurs when oxygen is not available. For example, in muscle tissues during rapid and vigorous exercise, muscle cells may be depleted of oxygen. They then switch from respiration to fermentation.

4 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation The pyruvic acid formed during glycolysis is broken down to lactic acid and energy is released (which is used to form ATP). Glucose → Pyruvic acid → Lactic acid + energy

5 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation The process of lactic acid fermentation replaces the process of aerobic respiration so that the cell can have a continual source of energy, even in the absence of oxygen. However this shift is only temporary and cells need oxygen for sustained activity.

6 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation Lactic acid that builds up in the tissue causes a burning, painful sensation.

7 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation Alcohol fermentation occurs in yeasts and some bacteria. Pyruvic acid formed during glycolysis is broken down to produce alcohol and carbon dioxide and is released (which is used to form ATP).

8 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation Glucose → Pyruvic acid → alcohol + carbon dioxide + energy

9 Anaerobic Respiration - Fermentation Fermentation is used in food production. Name the Types!!! –Yogurt- Soy Sauce –Cheese- Vinegar –Bread- Olives/Pickles –Beer/ Meade- Wine/ Ale –Sauerkraut- Malt

11 AerobicAnaerobic Location Oxygen Requirements End Products Energy Produced Differences between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration

12 AerobicAnaerobic Location Cytoplasm/Cytosol matrix of mitochondria, inner mitochondria membrane Cytoplasm Oxygen Requirements Uses O 2 Does not use O 2 End Products CO 2 + H 2 OEthanol +CO 2 or Lactic acid Energy Produced Lots of energy (38 ATP) Little energy (2 ATP) Differences between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration
