- Yeast undergoes alcoholic fermentation under anaerobic conditions. - Fermentation allows glycolysis to continue by regenerating NAD⁺. - Glycolysis produces ATP. - Pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde and then ethanol during alcoholic fermentation, releasing CO₂.
When yeast cells are O₂ starved, fermentation serves as the source of energy. This results in the production of :
