Assertion : In alcoholic fermentaion, the hexose molecule is converted into glucose asnd fructose.
Reason : Alcoholic fermentatioin is anaerobic respiration brough about by enzyme zymase.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Alcoholic fementation is the respiration in absence of `O_(2)`. In this process, hexose molecule is changed to ehtyl alcohol and `CO_(2)`. In presence of zymase enzyme. In this less amount of energy is released as compared to ethyl alcohol and `CO_(2)`. in presence of zymase enzyme in this less amount of energy is released as compared to aerobic respiration.
