Fermentation (biochemistry)
Fermentation is a process of energy production in a cell in an anaerobic environment (with no oxygen present). In common usage fermentation is a type of anaerobic respiration, however a more strict definition exists which defines fermentation as respiration in an anaerobic environment with no external electron acceptor.
