Answer

oxygen

Explanation

Fermentation is an anaerobic process, meaning it occurs in the absence of oxygen. It takes place in cells when oxygen levels are low or limited, and it allows for the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is a molecule that provides energy for cellular processes. This process is particularly crucial in conditions where oxygen is scarce, such as in certain types of bacteria and yeast, or during intense exercise when the oxygen supply to muscle cells is insufficient.
