Answer:

Carbon is so important it is sometimes called the building block of life. Carbon atoms can bond together to form short or very long chains. ... All of this is possible because carbon is a small element that is capable of covalently bonding to four other atoms. Carbon atoms can bond together to form branching networks.

What do you mean by fermentation?

The metabolic process of fermentation alters the chemical composition of organic substrates through the action of enzymes. The process of generating energy from carbohydrates without the presence of oxygen is expressly stated as such in biochemistry. If the action of microbes produces the intended alteration to a food or beverage, it may more broadly refer to any process utilized in food production. Zymology, or fermentation science, is a field of study. The primary mechanism by which bacteria manufacture adenosine triphosphate is fermentation, which involves the anaerobic degradation of organic molecules (ATP).

What molecule is responsible for carrying the acetyl group from pyruvate into the citric acid cycle?
Airida [17]
<span>During Glycolysis, one molecule of glucose is converted into two molecules of pyruvic acid in the cytoplasm of the cell. Pyruvic acid is then moved into the inner matrix of the mitochondria, which is the organelle within the cell responsible for the generation of energy. The pyruvic acid molecule is converted into acetyl Co-A, which is the molecule that enters the Krebs Cycle. In the Krebs Cycle, acetyl Co-A is attached to oxaloacetate acid to form citric acid; the Krebs Cycle is alternately known as the citric acid cycle.</span>
