What is Fermentation (Anaerobic Respiration)?

Fermentation, also known as anaerobic respiration, is the type of cellular respiration that occurs without oxygen. It is far less efficient than aerobic respiration and usually only occurs when oxygen levels are depleted. There are two different processes of fermentation. In plants and yeasts glucose is broken down to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide and release energy. In animals glucose is broken down to produce lactic acid and release energy. See the video for the full chemical equations for each process. The energy released from fermentation is used to fuel the ATP cycle which then provides energy for the cells work.

Really excellent videos. That goes for the dozen or so of your videos I've watched since i found your channel last night. I've been watching videos on the subject for about a year now. But your videos some how sink in way better than any thing else I've watched. THANKS!

[@arijitghosh6378]

Thank you Jeremy for explaining it so lucidly. It was very helpful.

[@rexrender4095]

I love the way you explain different concepts. Your videos helped me tremendously with my preparation towards my Bio exam. Thanks.

Anaerobic respiration is completed a lot like aerobic respiration because it uses a carrier chain the same as aerobics electron transport chain. The big difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration is the O2 as the final electron acceptor. Fermentation is not the same thing as anaerobic respiration.

Extremely excellent teaching, awesome arrangement of prepared signs.

[@followmeback2599]

I like ur way of teaching.

[@ludz1047]

Brilliant class. Thank you!

[@MooMooMath]

Great job-very clear explanation

[@maybrad5260]

Wow, thanks I learned something.

[@weyeahnjaojia6019]

Very helpful.Thank you.

[@mzlgaming4829]

A very good explanation

Nice!

I would want to get these books I am in Jamaica

[@Imergedz]

Thanks

nice watch

Fermentation is NOT anaerobic respiration!! Anaerobic Respiration uses the ETC but Fermentation does not. Also Fermentation does not use oxidative phosphorylation.

[@JM-lh8rl]

Andrea Bauers Isn't the Electron Transport Chain the same thing as Oxidative Phosporilation? And also, isn't the ETC an aerobic process anyway? How can it be anaerobic but use oxygen for the ETC?

[@amingull3333]

yes you are also right

[@amingull3333]

an excellent class

[@mohibshamim958]

My question is, after running or working we drink normal glucose for energy that means the process is fermentation? If fermentation that means drinking alcohol? pls make clear . the 2nd question is in fermentation process glucose break down without any external force? pls explain which will be helpful. thanks

[@nirmalaselladurai1433]

Nice

[@thegoldenkingfisher]

How can fermentation possibly occur in plants? Can plants run out of carbon dioxide or oxygen?

[@priyankamali2845]

My Question is, What triggers the Glucose fermentation? There should be some external force or energy which causes the breaking down of glucose. What it is?

[@jirenthegray2570]

Tissue hypoxia

[@realevil309]

If i decompose vegetable matter in water, what will happen?

[@lames.bogacu7099]

[@erikameneses6874]

Hi can I ask you? Why are methods of anaerobic respiration, such as fermentation, less efficient than aerobic respiration?

[@samirbhise2672]

Mind blowing explanation sir

[@firasgamer5426]

Why do I feel like you are copying tyler Dewit set up...

[@dadriandawkins5034]

why don't he get to the damn point

[@NumbToons]

+Dadrian Dawkins So that we could analyse and feel the content,instead of cramping it

[@dadriandawkins5034]

+Rohit shekhawat bullshit

[@maybrad5260]

Dadrian you ignorant

[@soorajkumar8263]

Brilliant way of teaching.. thanks for such an valuable videos. Very helpfull
