Question

in humans, why is the process of fermentation unable to sustain life? humans are unable to use the atp produced by fermentation. fermentation is not efficient at using the energy sources we eat to make atp. fermentation in human cells produces toxic products that rapidly destroy cells. fermentation causes glycolysis to stop. fermentation is not a process that occurs in human cells.

Explanation:

Fermentation is less efficient in producing ATP compared to aerobic respiration. It does not fully oxidize energy - rich molecules like glucose. Humans need a large amount of ATP to sustain life - processes, and fermentation cannot meet this demand effectively.

Answer:

Fermentation is not efficient at using the energy sources we eat to make ATP.
