Step-by-step solution
Respiration is part of the metabolic process where the nutrients are converted into useful energy for regular cell activities. It is in two-mode depending on the presence or absence of oxygen. Aerobic respiration is the one where oxygen is involved and anaerobic respiration is the process where oxygen is absent. In lactic acid fermentation, the pyruvate from glycolysis is reduced by NADH to lactic acid and NAD+. This reaction is catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase with zinc and FMN as co-enzyme. This process is used
