Which of the following processes is responsible for the ATP made during fermentation?
A)the electron transport chain
B)substrate-level phosphorylation
C)chemiosmosis
D)oxidative phosphorylation
E)aerobic respiration

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fermentation does not involve the electron transport chain or chemiosmosis, which are the processes responsible for ATP synthesis in aerobic respiration. Instead, ATP is produced through substrate-level phosphorylation, where a phosphate group is transferred from an organic molecule to ADP to form ATP. Oxidative phosphorylation also does not occur in fermentation as it involves the use of oxygen as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.
