Examples.
Metabolism pathways..
Which consists on two pathways..

2) Carbolic.
Secondly pathways may be Aerobic an

O2 Lack of Presence
O2 of O2
1) absence of Oxygen (in yeast) →ethanol + CO2 + energy- 2 carbon molecule
2)lack of Oxygen( in our muscle cells)→lactic acid + energy (3 carbon molecule)
3) presence of Oxygen (in mitochondria)→Co2 + H2O +energy
