Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The electron donor and electron acceptor in lactic-acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation should be determined.

Concept introduction:

The product of glycolysis is pyruvate. In the absence of oxygen, it undergoes fermentation and anaerobic respiration, while in the presence of oxygen it undergoes aerobic fermentation. The final electron acceptor in fermentation is an organic molecule.

Detailed with reactions.Why does FAD accepts 2 protons in dehydration of succinate to fumarate? Why dont NAD molecules participate in this reaction?
Compare and contrast biochemical pathways. Describe the chemistry of the last three steps of the TCA. Describe the chemistry of the first three steps of β-oxidation. Explain how these pathways are similar and how they differ in terms of their chemistry, the involvement of coenzymes and the fate of the electrons. Describe the two connections between the urea cycle and the citric acid cycle
