Reply to comment by Level_Rule2567 in How does pyruvate know to go to the mitochondria or to do the anaerobic reaction? by WeedCat1

I love this..so much depends on there being enough oxygen to accept electrons at the end of the electron transport chain. If reaction intermediates build up, you can be sure pyruvate will also build up and preferentially undergo fermentation.
