What type of fermentation can occur in animals including humans?
A
Aerobic
B
Alcoholic
C
Citric Acid
D
Lactic Acid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It is an anaerobic fermentation reaction that occurs in some bacteria and animal cells, such as muscle cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Two common kinds of fermentation are lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation. Both are anaerobic processes, but lactic acid fermentation occurs in animal tissue such as human muscle, while alcohol fermentation occurs in plant and yeast cells. Both are used in food production.

Detailed explanation-3: -Humans undergo lactic acid fermentation when the body needs a lot of energy in a hurry. When you are sprinting full speed, your cells will only have enough ATP stored in them to last a few seconds. Once the stored ATP is used, your muscles will start producing ATP through lactic acid fermentation.
