Glucose fermentation - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Most of the cell membrane's specific functions are controlled by: - Proteins Alcoholic Fermentation is a form of: - Anaerobic Respiration Phagocytosis is a form of: - Endocytosis What is a pyruvate? - Pyruvate is an important chemical compound in biochemistry. It is the output of the metabolism of glucose known as glycolysis. One molecule of glucose breaks down into two molecules of pyruvate, which are then used to provide further energy, in one of two ways. What are the small spher...
