KEY CONCEPT Fermentation allows the production of a small amount of ATP without oxygen. What is Fermentation? • Cellular respiration refers to a process by which cells convert food into energy. • Fermentation is a specific chemical reaction within the respiration cycle. It takes place when the cells do not have access to oxygen, a condition also known as anaerobic respiration. • The process of fermentation generates far less energy than aerobic, or oxygen-based, respiration. Fermentation allows glycolysis to continue ...

Metabolism Anaerobic Cellular Respiration & Fermentation From the Virtual Cell Biology Classroom on ScienceProfOnline.com Everyday Biology What causes smelly farts? - Most people pass gas at least 10 – 25x a day. - Farts are mostly a byproduct microbial anaerobic respiration & fermentation in the colon (large intestine). - Over 99% of fart volume is non-smelly gases, including oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen and methane. - Smelly farts are caused by microbes that generate volatile sulfur compounds ...
