Fermentation is similar to anaerobic respiration.

Fermentation is similar to anaerobic respiration. Correct Answer False

Fermentation and anaerobic respiration differ from each other on the basis of the final electron acceptor. In fermentation, the final electron acceptor is organic molecules while in anaerobic respiration the final electron acceptor is inorganic molecule like nitrate, sulfate, carbonate etc.
