The process of conversion of Glucose into Alcohol is called as

The correct answer is Fermentation.

Key Points

• Fermentation is a chemical process by which molecules such as glucose are broken down anaerobically.
• There are three different types of fermentation.

Lactic Acid Fermentation

• Starch or sugar is converted into lactic acid by yeast strains and bacteria.
• During exercise, the occurrence of muscle cramps is due to lactic acid formation.
• The energy expenditure is faster than the oxygen supplied to the muscle cells.

Alcohol Fermentation

• Alcoholic fermentation is the process by which ethanol and carbon dioxide are produced from sugars like fructose, glucose, and sucrose by yeasts during their production of cellular energy.

Acetic Acid Fermentation

• ​Vinegar is obtained from the fermentation of ethanol by acetic acid bacteria.
