Cellular respiration is a process that breaks down glucose to produce energy. Fermentation is a metabolic process that converts carbohydrates into acids or alcohols.  Here are some differences between cellular respiration and fermentation: Inputs: Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen as inputs. Fermentation uses carbohydrates as inputs. Outputs: Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy (ATP) as outputs. Fermentation produces small, reduced organic molecules as waste. Complete oxidation: Cellular respiration completely oxidizes glucose into CO2 and water.... Show more
