Describe the role of fermentation in maintaining ATP and NAD+ levels

Please find the description of the role of fermentation in the production of ATP and NAD+ levels below.

Explanation:

Fermentation is a form of anaerobic respiration in which glucose is broken down in the absence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and alcohol or lactic acid depending on which type of fermentation it is.

Fermentation process makes use of the electron carrier, NADH, mad oxidizes it back to NAD+. This electron acceptor molecule is strictly required in the glycolysis process. Hence, fermentation helps convert NADH to NAD+ needed by glycolysis for the production of few ATP molecules. In summary, fermentation may not directly synthesize ATP but it helps produce the molecule (NAD+) needed to synthesize it.

i am positive it is c. condensing but i may be wrong

i think it’s c but i might be wrong. if i am let me know! have a good rest of your day as well!
