The nature of life
Storyboard Text
- There are two types of fermentation: Lactic and Alcoholic.
- Lactic acid fermentation is a metabolic process by which glucose or other six-carbon sugars are converted into cellular energy and the metabolite lactate, which is lactic acid in solution.
- Wow, and what do they consist of?
- No daughter, it is not complicated, on the contrary it is very easy.
- Alcoholic Fermentation: Is a complex biochemical process during which yeasts convert sugars to ethanol, carbon dioxide, and other metabolic byproducts that contribute to the chemical composition and sensorial properties of the fermented foodstuffs.
- My God I understand that it was not as complicated as it seemed
- Well, I'm glad I helped you daughter.
- Remember that these processes are very important and it is a priority to know what each one consists of.
- thank you very much mom!
- On the other hand, in respiration CO2 and water are released, while in photosynthesis these two elements, in addition to light, are necessary to be able to synthesize glucose.
- In photosynthesis, energy is consumed and stored, while cellular respiration releases energy.
- Perfect, now I understand
- The energy with which ATP is formed can be taken, for example, from sunlight, by photosynthesis, although it can also take energy by other means, such as the degradation of glucose.
- ATP is the primary energy carrier molecule for all forms of life (bacteria, yeasts, molds, algae, plants, animal cells)
- oh, my God!!!
- It is a process that does not require oxygen to take place, and that produces an organic substance as a result. It is a catabolic process
- And finally we have the fermentation
- Is it the one used in food, in wine industries, in dairy?
