Systems Biology
Fermentation is a metabolic process that converts sugar to acids, gases, or alcohol in the absence of oxygen. It allows organisms to generate energy and produce byproducts that can be useful in various biological contexts, particularly when oxygen is limited. This anaerobic process is essential for many microorganisms and plays a critical role in energy production and metabolic pathways within cells.
