FERMENTATION
What is Fermentation?
• The process by which cells release
energy from food molecules in the
absence of oxygen.
•Together with Glycolysis, it can only
produced 2 ATP molecules.
•Happens in the cytoplasm of the cell.
This process was already used since
4000 BC to make bread, wine,
cheese, etc.
• Happens in animal tissues and some
microorganisms.
• Converts pyruvate to lactate.
•AFTER GLYCOLYSIS:

This type of fermentation can

happen in our muscles when the
supply of oxygen is very limited.
• Happens in plant tissues and some
microorganisms like yeast.
• Converts pyruvate to ethanol and carbon
dioxide.
•AFTER GLYCOLYSIS:

This type of fermentation happens

when we want the dough to rise.

Connecting Photosynthesis
and Respiration
Photosynthesis
Light + water + carbon dioxide = energy

Respiration
Oxygen + glucose = power their functions
Photosynthesis and Cellular
Respiration

Cellular Respiration:
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 +
6H2O
Photosynthesis: 6CO2 +
6H2O → C6H12O6+ 6O2
Photosynthesis and Cellular
Respiration
• It is the released oxygen that is used by us and most other
organisms for cellular respiration. We breathe in that oxygen,
which is carried through our blood to all our cells. In our cells,
oxygen allows cellular respiration to proceed. Cellular
respiration works best in the presence of oxygen.
• The exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen during
photosynthesis and cellular respiration worldwide helps to keep
atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide at stable levels.
• Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are important parts of
the carbon cycle
