Anaerobic Energy Production
- Anaerobic energy production is very similar to aerobic energy production
- The word part an. means not or without so it means without air.
- It makes energy not by using oxygen but with fermentation.
What is fermentation?
- Fermentation is the production of energy without oxygen.
- Fermentation has two categories, alcoholic and lactic acid.
- Lactic acid fermentation is where our bodies use acid to give us ATP energy when we don't get enough oxygen in our bodies however it is not as effective as aerobic fermentation
- Alcoholic fermentation is what we use for yeast in bread, making/brewing beer.
Summary:
Knowing how anaerobic energy production can help with a few things such as making bread and wine, being a coach, saving time for when you ask your coach why your muscles are burning. It can be useful for exercise like aerobic respiration but it is still inferior.
