When yeast is producing wine, which of the following is NOT formed?
Correct answer: C. Acetyl-coenzyme A
- A. Ethyl alcohol
- B. Carbon dioxide
- C. Acetyl-coenzyme A
- D. Pyruvic acid
Explanation
In alcoholic fermentation during wine production, yeast forms ethyl alcohol, carbon dioxide, and pyruvic acid, but not acetyl-coenzyme A.

About Bioenergetics
Cellular respiration explains how cells release energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain. It includes ATP production, substrate-level and oxidative phosphorylation, aerobic versus anaerobic respiration, and the roles of mitochondria, oxygen and fermentation in energy transfer.
