The process that occurs in a cell when there is not enough oxygen
is called fermentation. Fermentation occurs through the process of Anaerobic Respiration,
where instead of using oxygen, organic and inorganic molecules are used as
final electron acceptors. The by-product of this process is usually alcohol,
ethanol, or acetic acids.

Fermentation is commonly used in lactic acid (in muscles) and alcohol (beers,
whiskey) fermentation where the by-product is ethanol. Yeasts are a common
organism that uses this process, where it convert sugars into alcohols or
acetic acids.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
A. False - A symporter system requires that one of the molecules to be transported using passive transport.
B. True - The Na+ will move down the established concentration gradient releasing energy to facilitate movement of sucrose against its concentration gradient. This is known as secondary active transport.
C. False - sucrose moves through ion channels not by diffusion to better control its movement across the membrane.
D. True - Movement of molecules against their concentration gradient thus requiring energy input is known as active transport.
E. False - One of the molecules needs to be moving against its concentration gradient.
F. False - A Uniporter system allows the binding and transport of a single molecule at a time. A symporter allows simultaneous binding and transport of Na+ and sucrose molecules.
