During which process is ethanol produced?

Answer:
Alcohol fermentation
Explanation:
When oxygen availability is low, the cell can't perform aerobic respiration to breakdown glucose. Instead, anaerobic respiration must be performed. This occurs in cells which consume large amounts of energy, such as muscle cells. Anaerobic respiration produces much less energy than aerobic respiration
One type of anaerobic respiration formed by yeast is called alcohol fermentation (also called ethanol fermentation). This begins with glycolysis, where one molecule of glucose is broke down into 2 molecules of pyruvate. The energy from this reaction generates 2 molecules of ATP, and converts NAD+ to NADH.
Then, the two molecules of pyruvate are further broke down into 2 acetaldehydes (releasing two molecules of carbon dioxide as a by-product). These two molecules of acetaldehyde are then converted into tw molecules of ethanol, using the H ions from NADH, converting it back to NAD+. See the attached picture
This process is taken advantage of to brew beer and wine.

Answer: The correct answer is black because the product of its side and mass is lower.
Explanation: Density of a substance is defined as the mount of matter that can be stored in a given volume.
Mathematically,
As, density is inversely proportional to the volume of the substance.
The substance will be more denser if it has less volume and it will be less denser if the volume is more.
We are given two cubes having different sides.
Volume of the cube is calculated by using the formula:
where, a = side of the cube.
Black: The side of this cube is 2 and volume will be =
Yellow: The side of this cube is 3 and volume will be =
As, the volume of black cube is less. So, this cube will be more denser.
Density of black cube:
Density of Yellow Cube:
Hence, black cube will be more denser because the product of its side and mass is lower.
