What is the chemical equation of lactic acid fermentation?

Biology
1 answer:
juin [17]3 years ago
5 0

Lactic acid fermentation is the conversion of sugars to lactic acid.  The fermentation of glucose to lactic acid is C6H12O6 --> 2CH3CH(OH)CO2HAlcoholic fermentation is the oxidation of sugars to produce ethanol and CO2.  This is used to produce beer and wine.  The fermentation of glucose to ethanol and CO2 is C6H12O6 --> 2CH3CH2OH + 2CO2<span>Anaerobic respiration is the breakdown of energy rich molecules without sufficient quantities of oxygen present.  In human muscles, it is the same equation-wise as lactic acid fermentation, which is C6H12O6 --> 2CH3CH(OH)CO2H.  Lactic acid requires oxygen to break it down further.</span>

This is a type of protein found in the cell membrane, which regulates the coming and going of substances into or out of the cell
natita [175]

Answer:

Gated ion-channels

Explanation:

These ion channels are protein molecules that act as a passageway which span across the cell membrane allowing the movement of ions from one side of the membrane to the other. They possess the ability to open and close in response to either chemical or mechanical signals.They possess a fluidic pore, which becomes available to ions after a conformational change in the protein structure has been activated causing the ion channel to open.  Based on the stimulus to which they respond, ion channels are divided into three groups: voltage-gated, ligand-gated and mechano-sensitive ion channels. Channels responding to electrical (voltage-dependent ion channels), mechanical, or chemical (ligand-gated ion channels) stimuli open and allow rapid ion movement into or out of the cell, and this movement creates an electrical signals.

Explain why is important for hydrogen bonds to be weak bonds instead of very strong bonds.
lesantik [10]

Hydrogen bonds are classified as weak because they are formed fast, but they also break easily under normal biological conditions.


Weak bonds can be easily broken, but this is extremely important because they are in bold in biological systems. For example, they help to decide and stabilize the shapes of water molecules.
