Answer:
The correct answer is A. Fossil fuels are cheaper than alternative forms of energy
Explanation:
Fossil fuels are made from organic matter of dead animals and mainly plants who were buried in the soil over hundred and thousand of years. We use fossil fuels because they are the best source to provide energy in the current time.
Fossil fuels are easily available and are present in very large amount which is the main reason for it to be cheaper. Fossil fuels like coal, petroleum or natural gas are more cheaper and efficient than alternative forms of energy like solar or wind energy.
But in future these fossil fuel will not be there and alternative forms of energy will become the primary and cheaper source of fuel.
Answer:
a. Oxygen performs an essential role in the mentioned microbial cell in a manner that it takes part in the procedure of glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain, which eventually assists in the production of energy from food substrates and this generation of energy helps the cell to survive.
In the existence of oxygen, sugar gets dissociated through glycolysis to generate pyruvate, which again in the existence of oxygen is transformed into acetyl CoA. This moves into the Krebs cycle and gets dissociated to water and carbon dioxide generating ATP through ETC. This generation of ATP helps the cell to survive.
In low oxygen surrounding or in the absence of oxygen, some of the aerobic microbes can switch their respiratory pathway and carry on the process of fermentation and anaerobic respiration to produce energy and thrive. However, the mentioned microbial cell, which when it comes in contact with the low oxygen environment cannot carry out fermentation process and would die eventually.
b. This organism can be classified as obligate aerobes as they always need oxygen and do not possess the tendency to carry out the process of anaerobic respiration or fermentation under the absence of oxygenic environment.
Neutrons
The atomic mass is the weight of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
It would be passed along to the human offspring through meiosis.
