For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. Fermentation and aerobic respiration share the steps a that involve oxidation of glucose to pyruvate. Your answer Fermentation provides a means for the cycling of NADH back to b NAD+ so that glycolysis can continue. Fermentation pathways produce useful products such as lactate or ethanol. The amount of energy harvested from a molecule of glucose using fermentation is much less than the amount harvested using aerobic respiration. d Most organisms that rely on fermentation are small microbes that e grow relatively slowly.
