Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What type of fermentation occurs in most organisms, including animals?
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: -Lactic Acid Fermentation Most organisms carry out fermentation through a chemical reaction that converts the pyruvate from glycolysis into lactic acid or lactate. Lactic acid fermentation also converts NADH into NAD+ so that glycolysis can continue.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lactic acid fermentation is the type of anaerobic respiration carried out by yogurt bacteria (Lactobacillus and others) and by your own muscle cells when you work them hard and fast.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lactic acid fermentation is a form of anaerobic respiration (or fermentation), that generates energy in the absence of oxygen. This process occurs in certain types of animal cells and bacterial species, and it earns its name because of the lactic acid it produces as a byproduct.
