Assertion (A): The processes of lactic acid and alcohol fermentation are less efficient in harnessing the energy stored in glucose compared to aerobic respiration.
Reason (R): In these fermentation pathways, the incomplete breakdown of glucose occurs under anaerobic conditions, where oxygen is not available.
