Describe the similarities and differences between alcoholic fermentation carried out by yeast to make alcoholic beverages and lactate-acid fermentation carried out within the human body.

Alcohol fermentation is  metabolic process where by lactate and ATPs are produced during in absence of oxygen

Lactic Acid fermentation is a metabolic   process where by glucose is broken down to Alcohol, CO2 and energy(ATPs.  The C02 is the waste product.

Explanation:

Differences

Lactic acid fermentation is  straight  step  from Pyruvate  to Lactic acid

Alcoholic fermentation is a two way   step- pyruvate to ethanal  to ethanol

Endproducts  

Lactic acid fermentation ; lactase and Energy

Alcoholic fermentation- C02 , Alcohol and energy

Enzymes

Lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate decarboxylase are the enzymes of lactic acid fermentation reactions  

The two enzymes involved in alcoholic fermentation are; Pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase  

Similarities.

→The two processes  breakdown glucose to produce ATPs

→The main goal pf the two processes  is to recycle NAD+ so that the process of glycolysis will  not stop, but continues, for  the NAD+ to return and reduced  to NADH  in glycolysis.

→Both process are exergonic., gives out heat energy

→Both produce  the same number of ATPs,  4 ATPs  of glycolysis.

→Both takes place in absence of oxygen

→Both takes place in   Cystosol  of cytoplasm

→Both is preceded with glycolsysis.

in 1859, charles darwin set out his theory of evolution by natural selection as an explanation for adaptation and speciation. he defined natural selection as the "principle by which each slight variation [of a trait], if useful, is preserved".
