Answer:

Alcoholic fermentation

Explanation:

Some bacteria and yeasts get energy by fermenting sugars, this reaction has as its end product ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide (CO2), this process is called alcoholic fermentation.

Alcoholic fermentation occurs as follows: in order to react, each glucose molecule initially consumes 2 ATP to be activated. When this occurs, the glucose molecule begins to undergo various reactions until it gives rise to two molecules of pyruvic acid.

In the course of these reactions, enough energy is released to recompose 4 ATP. Each pyruvic acid molecule then decarboxylates to ethyl alcohol or ethanol.

After all these processes, the energy balance of alcoholic fermentation is: 4 ATP produced minus 2 ATP consumed to activate glucose, resulting in a balance of 2 ATP.

Human beings use alcoholic fermentation products mainly for the production of alcoholic beverages, where ethyl alcohol acts, and bread, considering that the release of carbon dioxide causes the dough to grow.
