Fermentation breaks down organic molecules without an ETC or oxygen, producing less ATP than aerobic respiration as it only uses substrate-level phosphorylation. Final products vary depending on the organism.
La fermentación descompone moléculas orgánicas sin ETC ni oxígeno, produciendo menos ATP que la respiración aeróbica ya que solo utiliza fosforilación a nivel de sustrato. Los productos finales varían según el organismo.
