- Select all of the following that are false: a) Fermentation directly produces ATP. b) Fermentation allows glycolysis to continue. c) Fermentation allows cell respiration to continue.arrow_forwardDescribe each step of the metabolic pathway shown in the image below.

Linoleic Acid 18:3n-6 он Gamma Linolenic Acid 20:3n-6 он Dihomo Gamma Linolenic Acid 20:4n-6 HO, Arachidonic Acid 22:4n-6 но, Docosatetraenoic Acidarrow_forwardSome friends are trying to make wine in their basement. They've added yeast (which is a facultative anaerobe - it can perform both aerobic respiration and fermentation) to a sweet grape juice mixture and have allowed the yeast to grow. After several days they find that sugar levels in the grape juice have dropped, but there's no alcohol in the mixture. The most likely explanation is that the mixture needs less oxygen, because yeast only produce alcohol in the absence of oxygen the mixture needs less sugar, because high sugar concentrations prevent fermentation the mixture needs more sugar, because yeast need a lot of energy before they can begin to produce alcohol the yeast used the alcohol as a carbon source the mixture needs more oxygen, because yeast need oxygen to break down sugar and get enough energy to produce alcoholarrow_forward
