| fermentation |
An energy-yielding metabolic process in which electrons derived from an organic substrate are used ultimately to reduce an organic electron acceptor that is made by the cell itself. Neither an electron transport chain nor an exogenous terminal electron acceptor is involved. (Contrast with respiration).

| fermentation |
A type of heterotrophic metabolism in which an organic compound rather than oxygen is the terminal electron (or hydrogen) acceptor. Less energy is generated from this incomplete form of glucose oxidation than is generated by respiration, but the process supports anaerobic growth.
