Explanation:

Answer from: indiaholmes16

The condition required for fermentation to occur is when the oxygen levels within a cell are too low for aerobic respiration.

Further Explanation:Cellular respirationThis is the process by which food substances such as glucose are broken down to yield energy in the form of ATP for the cells. The energy is then sued to drive cellular activities such as transport and cell division.Cellular respiration is classified into two;Aerobic respiration.Aerobic respiration is a type of respiration that takes place in living organisms in the presence of oxygen gas.The process involves the breakdown of organic compounds such as glucose to yield energy in the form of ATP and carbon dioxide together with water as byproducts.Anaerobic respiration/Fermentation Anaerobic respiration on the other hand is a type of respiration that occurs in absence of oxygen gas or in presence of low levels of oxygen gas in the cells.It involves the breakdown of organic compounds to form small amount of energy in the form of ATP and ethanol or lactic acid as byproducts.Anaerobic respiration/Fermentation occurs in two stages;Glycolysis; One glucose molecule is broken down to pyruvate and two molecules of ATP are formed.Fermentation; This is the second stage of anaerobic respiration, pyruvate from glycolysis can undergo various steps depending on the living organism. It can be converted to ethanol or lactic acid together with carbon dioxide.

Answer from: Quest

from my research i have to the conclusion that decomposers, such as fungi, bacteria and invertebrates, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and without them the earth's ecosystem may not support life as we know it. elements such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus exist in limited amounts on earth, although huge amounts of carbon are being released into the atmosphere from underground sources now by humans. it is still extremely important that other nutrients be retained by the process of re-use. decomposers are organisms that are able to chemically break down dead material and make these elements available for use by other organisms. without this breakdown of dead material, dead bodies would pile up. so decomposers also play a role in clean up also. without them, life might not continue as we know it and dead material would overwhelm the earth.

Looking at the diagram above predict the effect on carbon cycle if all the decomposers were removed
