Can you give me examples of anaerobic respiration?
Here are some examples of anaerobic respiration:
1. Alcoholic fermentation: This process is carried out by yeast and some bacteria. In this process, glucose is broken down into ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide.
2. Lactic acid fermentation: This process is carried out by some bacteria, such as Lactobacillus. In this process, glucose is broken down into lactic acid.
3. Butyric acid fermentation: This process is carried out by some bacteria, such as Clostridium. In this process, glucose is broken down into butyric acid.
4. Propionic acid fermentation: This process is carried out by some bacteria, such as Propionibacterium. In this process, glucose is broken down into propionic acid.
5. Mixed acid fermentation: This process is carried out by some bacteria, such as Enterobacter. In this process, glucose is broken down into a mixture of products, including lactic acid, acetic acid, and formic acid.
