C)Fermentation
D)Glycolysis
E)Chemiosmosis

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process described is respiration. During respiration, hydrogen is removed from sugars (in the form of glucose) and fats and transferred to oxygen, ultimately producing ATP for the cell's energy needs. Photosynthesis, on the other hand, is the process whereby energy from sunlight is used to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water. Fermentation is a process for generating ATP without oxygen, typically by converting pyruvate to lactate or ethanol. Glycolysis is the initial step in both respiration and fermentation, where glucose is broken down into pyruvate. Chemiosmosis is the process by which ATP is generated through the movement of ions across a membrane.
