Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary function of fermentation in microbial metabolism?
  • Step 1: Understand that fermentation is a process used by some microorganisms to produce energy.
  • Step 2: Know that during fermentation, glucose is broken down without using oxygen.
  • Step 3: Realize that glycolysis is the first step in breaking down glucose, which produces energy and a molecule called NADH.
  • Step 4: Understand that NADH needs to be converted back to NAD+ for glycolysis to continue.
  • Step 5: Learn that fermentation helps regenerate NAD+ from NADH, allowing glycolysis to keep producing energy.
