What is the term for the breakdown of glucose in the absence of oxygen?

Biology
1 answer:
Alekssandra [29.7K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Fermentation

Explanation:

In the absence of oxygen, the cell uses a process called fermentation. Fermentation doesn't break the sugar down any further, it simply helps reset the system so that more sugar can be broken down.

Because aerobic respiration breaks the sugar all the way down, it releases much more energy than fermentation.

Hope this helps :)

ikadub [295]

Answer:

The word "animal" comes from the Latin animalis, meaning having breath, having soul or living being. The biological definition includes all members of the kingdom Animalia. In colloquial usage, as a consequence of anthropocentrism, the term animal is sometimes used nonscientifically to refer only to non-human animals.
