kirill [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a) Carbon dioxide and water.

b) Waste product varies according to the electron acceptor used in the process. Some of the waste products are H2S, methane, succinate, etc.

c) Waste products varies according to the final electron acceptor. Some of the waste products are lactic acid, ethanol and CO2, and Propionic acid,  acetic acid,  CO2, and H2.

Explanation:

a) Aerobic respiration uses molecular oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor and forms carbon dioxide and water as waste products.  

b) Anaerobic respiration is exhibited when a terminal electron acceptor is any substance other than oxygen. Some of the commonly used terminal electron acceptors during anaerobic respiration are nitrate, sulfate, and CO2 which in turn give NO2-, hydrogen sulfide and methane as waste products respectively.  

c) Fermentation is the process that uses pyruvate or its derivatives as an electron acceptor and produces acids and alcohol as waste products. Some of the waste products are lactic acid, ethanol and CO2, acetic acid and CO2 and H2.

Plants that we recognize today spend the majority of their life in the A. haploid phase. B. gametophyte phase. C. seed phase. D.
sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is D: diploid phase

Explanation:

The essence of plant life is their characteristic property of alternation of generations. Each plant undergoes alternation of generations and produces haploid and diploid generations.

This property allows the plant to reproduce both sexually and asexually. Primitive plant species used to reproduce through spores and spent the majority of their life as haploid cells. These cells were called as spores and required only matter and energy to reproduce.

Modern plant species reproduce by using gametes and spent the majority of their life in diploid phase called diploid sporophytes.
