Answer:

Bacteriochlorophyll

Explanation:  Bacteria that contain bacteriochlorophyll do not use water as an electron donor and therefore do not produce oxygen.

Answer:

Krebs cycle.

Explanation:

Anaerobic bacteria do not do the process called the Krebs Circle. This is because the Krebs Circle only happens in the presence of oxygen and anaerobic bacteria do not survive in the presence of oxygen.

The Krebs cycle, also called the citric acid cycle, or the tricarboxylic acid cycle, is one of the phases of cellular respiration discovered by biochemist Hans Adolf Krebs in 1938. This phase of respiration occurs in the mitochondrial matrix and is considered a amphibolic, catabolic and anabolic route.

In the Krebs cycle, pyruvic acid (C3H4O3) from glycolysis undergoes oxidative decarboxylation through the action of the pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme found within the mitochondria of eukaryotes, and reacts with coenzyme A (CoA).  The result of this reaction is the production of acetylcoenzyme A (acetylCoA) and a carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule. AcetylCoA then reacts with oxaloacetate, or oxalacetic acid, releasing the coenzyme A molecule, which does not stay in the cycle, forming citric acid.

The Krebs cycle is oxygen dependent because decarboxylation of pyruvic acid is by oxidation; Once oxidized, this acid reacts with coenzyme A to form acetylcoenzyme A. Throughout the Krebs cycle, a large amount of ATP is produced, hence it is considered a major energy producer.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Breathing rate is most likely to increase if the blood level of carbon dioxide increase.

Explanation:

Breathing rate is the number of breaths of a person during a specific time, is usually the number of respiratory cycles that occur per minute. External respiration is the process of exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide from the outside of the human body to pulmonary capillary blood. Once in the lungs, oxygen (and carbon dioxide to a very small extent) through the alveoli, pass into the red blood cells of the pulmonary vein blood. Carbon dioxide reacts in the blood with water, thanks to an enzyme, giving rise to bicarbonate. Blood reaches the heart, and is pumped into the cells by systemic arteries. The oxygen in the blood crosses the cell membrane and in turn, an exchange occurs, since the cell expels carbon dioxide and oxygen that it has not used. Once the exchange is done, the blood is conducted through the systematic veins with oxygen whose partial pressure is lower, and with an increase in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide. It reaches the heart again, leads through the right atrium and ventricle and finally travels through the pulmonary artery to the lungs where the air is expelled (expiration). Breathing rate tends to increase when the level of carbon dioxide in the blood increase.
