    Of course, cell respiration produces more energy than fermentation

    and fermentation does not need any oxygen, usually fermentation occurs when we do exercise, n our energy output is not enough, fermentation will starts to give a small energy boost, which products is lactic acids (which is why u feel ur muscle sore after exercising)..

    call respiration: adv(more energy)

    disadv(requires oxygen)

    fermentation: adv(no oxy requires)

    disadv( less energy and produces lactic acid)

    advantage:the body can use glucoses and give us energy when the cells don't have enough oxygen,cells can work instead of dieing.

    disadvantage:the lactate that will be made in our body by fermentation will make us tired soon.
