Fermentation Releases energy from oxidation of organic molecules Does not require oxygen Does not use the Krebs cycle or ETC Uses an organic molecule as the final electron acceptor
• Releases energy from oxidation of organic molecules • Does not require oxygen • Does not use the Krebs cycle or ETC • Uses an organic molecule as the final electron acceptor Fermentation
