4. Alcoholic Fermentation What happens? glucose is split into 2 pyruvic acid. 2 pyruvic acid split into carbon dioxide and alcohol. Happens in a yeast cell or bacterium.

5. Lactic Acid Fermentation Occurs in animal muscle cells when they get overly fatigued. Glucose splits into 2 pyruvic acids. 2 pyruvic acids splits into lactic acid.
