Anaerobic Respiration: Fermentation in Yeasts

Anaerobic Respiration: Fermentation in Yeasts
Video from Master Academic Video Collection: Yeasts gain energy from the food they absorb. It is processed through fermentation, a type of anaerobic respiration. Instead of creating lactate, yeast cells produce carbon dioxide and ethanol.
