Detailed explanation-1: -The cells cannot make more than 2 ATP in fermentation because oxidative phosphorylation does not happen due to a lack of oxygen. There are two types of fermentation, alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sometimes it stinks, a kind of stench that enters the cardboard of everything else in the fridge. Alcohol is great for preventing the growth of bacteria, but sometimes the yeast gets a little wild and you have to water the grass you make because it tastes as if you got it from a liquor store.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fermentation does not involve an electron transport system and does not directly produce any additional ATP beyond that produced during glycolysis by substrate-level phosphorylation. Organisms carrying out fermentation, called fermenters, produce a maximum of two ATP molecules per glucose during glycolysis.
Detailed explanation-4: -An electron transport system is not involved in fermentation, and no ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) is created directly by the fermentation process. Fermenters make very little ATP-only two ATP molecules per glucose molecule-during glycolysis.
