1 Answer

6 votes

Answer:

Unlike lactic acid fermentation where-in the end product is lactic acid, the 'waste' material in an alcohol respiration is ethanol (an alcohol) and CO2 (carbon dioxide). Human beings have already perfected the use of this process for commercial purposes like in the production of beer, wine and bread

Step-by-step explanation:

In alcoholic fermentation, pyruvate changes to alcohol and carbon dioxide. This type of fermentation is carried out by yeasts and some bacteria.
