Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

E.coli has a preference of glucose over other energy molecules and therefore whenever glucose it present, it leaves no chance of metabolizing and using it as a source of energy.  

However, in absence of glucose E.coli uses alternative energy sources such as galactose, maltose, lactose, arabinose etc. Therefore, it is clear that in order to sustain, an organism or bacteria follows multiple metabolic pathways to derive energy from various energy sources.

Hence, option B is correct.
