Answer:
Oxidize organic compounds AND use organic compounds as terminal electron acceptors. (Ans. E)
Explanation:
Anaerobes are the organism that does not require oxygen for their growth. The anaerobes are subdivided into three main classes:
1) Obligate anaerobes: These organisms use anaerobic metabolism to grow and killed in the presence of oxygen. Obligate anaerobe examples are Clostridium and Propionibacterium.
2) Facultative anaerobes: These organisms prefer to grow using aerobic metabolism processes and switch to anaerobic metabolism in the absence of oxygen. An example of facultative anaerobic bacteria is Lactobacillus.
3) Aerotolerent anaerobes: These organisms use anaerobic metabolism to grow and can survive in both conditions (oxygen and oxygen-free environment).
Anaerobic bacteria, oxidize organic compounds rather than oxygen & use organic compounds as terminal electron acceptors. Anaerobic bacteria release hydrogen sulfide gas as they decompose algae in the water. This process is also known as Anaerobic Respiration, in which formation of ATP without oxygen.
A garden has a higher level of oxygen compared to a city road. A garden has plants and trees. Plants produce oxygen and sugars from carbon dioxide. A city road is composed of industrial buildings, vehicles, humans, and animals. They consume oxygen that is why the oxygen content is lesser on a city road.
It absorbs and processes nutrients from food the same way I leaf does with sunlight
A certain drug is made from only two ingredients: compound A and compound B. There are 5 milliliters of compound A used for every 4 milliliters of compound B. If a chemist uses 255 milliliters of compound A, how many milliliters of the drug will be made?
----------------------------------
4:5 is the same as 4x:5x where 4x is compound A and 5x is compound B.
---
Solve for "x":
If amount of compound A is 4x = 255
x = 255/4
------------------------------
Then amount of compound B is 5x = 5(255/4) = 318.75 ml
