Differentiate between Glycolysis and Fermentation.
(N/A)
| Glycolysis | Fermentation |
|---|---|
| $(1)$ It is the partial oxidation of glucose into two molecules of pyruvic acid. | $(1)$ It is the incomplete oxidation of glucose under anaerobic conditions,leading to ethanol or lactic acid. |
| $(2)$ It occurs in the cytoplasm of all living cells. | $(2)$ It occurs in yeast,certain bacteria,and muscle cells under anaerobic conditions. |
| $(3)$ It does not require oxygen. | $(3)$ It occurs in the absence of oxygen. |
| $(4)$ $CO_{2}$ is not released during this process. | $(4)$ $CO_{2}$ is released during alcoholic fermentation. |
| $(5)$ Net gain is $2$ $ATP$ and $2$ $NADH + H^{+}$. | $(5)$ Net gain is $2$ $ATP$ (produced during glycolysis) and no further $ATP$ is produced in fermentation. |

$(ii)$ The scheme of glycolysis was given by Gustav Embden,Otto Meyerhof,and $J$. Parnas and is often referred to as the $EMP$ pathway.
$(iii)$ In glycolysis,$ATP$ is utilised at $2$ steps,not $4$.
$(iv)$ In both lactic acid and alcohol fermentation,not much energy is released; less than $7$ percent of the energy in glucose is released and not all of it is trapped as high-energy bonds of $ATP$.
$(v)$ For aerobic respiration to take place within the mitochondria,the final product of glycolysis,pyruvate,is transported from the cytoplasm into the mitochondria.
