Fermentation by itself produces no ATP but keeps glycolysis going, which produces a small amount of ATP. How does fermentation do this? a) Fermentation oxidizes the carbons in pyruvate to CO2, which is then used in glycolysis. b) Fermentation produces lactate, which keeps glycolysis going. c) Fermentation reduces NAD+ to NADH, which facilitates the production of ATP in glycolysis. d) Fermentation produces NADH, which fuels the electron transport chain and facilitates chemiosmosis. e) Fermentation oxidizes NADH to NAD+, which facilitates the production of ATP in glycolysis.

Fermentation oxidizes NADH to NAD+, which facilitates the production of ATP in glycolysis
