Ethanol is produced by $\boxed{{\text{alcohol fermentation}}}$ .

Further explanation :

Lactic Acid fermentation

Under anaerobic conditions, lactate or lactic acid fermentation begins. In this reaction, the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase reduces pyruvate to lactate. NADH is the reducing agent. As pyruvate is reduced and NADH is oxidized.

Alcohol Fermentation:

Under anaerobic conditions, the pyruvate produced by glycolysis undergoes two reactions of the alcohol fermentation.

In the first reaction, the enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase removes carbon dioxide from the pyruvate, producing ethanol. In the second reaction, the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase catalyzes the reduction of ethanal to form ethanol and oxidation of NADH.

The two products of alcohol fermentation, then, are ethanol and carbon dioxide.

Citric acid cycle:

Citric acid cycle is a set of chemical reactions catalyzed by many enzymes and plays a role in energy production and biosynthesis. It is the last stage of carbohydrates, fats, and amino acids breakdown. In this pathway, two molecules of ATP, six molecules of NADH, and three molecules ${\text{FAD}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}$ are produced from one molecule of glucose.

Electron transport chain:

Electron transport chains are present in the inner mitochondrial membrane In the mitochondrial membrane, all these molecules accept high energy electrons and transport electrons from one component to the next in the system. In the electron transport chain, NADH and ${\text{FAD}}{{\text{H}}_2}$ donate electrons to electron carriers present in inner mitochondrial membrane and reaches the endpoint of the electron transport chain, where molecular oxygen accepts these electrons to produce water and ATP.

A). The product of lactic acid fermentation is lactate or lactic acid. Hence option A is incorrect.

B). The product of alcohol fermentation is ethanol and carbon dioxide. Hence, option B is correct.

C). The product of the citric acid cycle is ATP and NADH. Hence, option C is incorrect.

D). The product of the electron transport chain is ATP and water. Hence, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, ethanol is produced by alcohol fermentation.

The correct answer is B), alcohol fermentation.

Ethanol is produced from biomass via a fermentation process that uses glucose derived from different types of sugars like molasses and sugar cane or starch, corn, or even cellulose. These elements are renewable.

There is another way to produce ethanol from non-renewable sources like coal and gas. It is known as Synthetic ethanol.

Ethanol is a type of alcohol that kills organisms and can be used in gasoline, antibacterial soaps, and hand sanitizer gels.

Answer:

c) classical (definitional)

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that this poses a problem for the approach to categorization known as the classical or definitional approach. This approach follows the idea of categorizing things based on resemblance in many aspects of the items in the category, or items that follow a specific definition. Which in this scenario if the fishes that don't match in the same characteristics as the other fishes are placed in the same category then it will cause confusion and problems.

Create a detailed hypothetical scenario that illustrates the concept of the adversarial system? (roughly 5 sentences?)

s2008m [1.1K]

The adversarial system or adversary system is a legal system used in the common law countries where two advocates represent their parties' case or position before an impartial person or group of people, usually a judge or jury, who attempt to determine the truth and pass judgment accordingly.[1][2][3] It is in contrast to the inquisitorial system used in some civil law systems (i.e. those deriving from Roman law or the Napoleonic code) where a judge investigates the case.

The adversarial system is the two-sided structure under which criminal trial courts operate, putting the prosecution against the defense.

tankabanditka [31]

The correct answer is B) an attempt to address the problems associated with the Gilded Age.

The statement that best describes the Progressive movement is "an attempt to address the problems associated with the Gilded Age.

The Gilded Age in the United States represented a period of economic growth of the big business, but with a lot of corruption practices by companies and the government. Furthermore, there were some problems that the country lived as a consequence of the Industrial Revolution. Well, the Progressive movement joined people that wanted to create reforms and were activists that demanded the end of corruption practices in America. The movement started in 1890 and ended in 1920.

Read the following:

ycow [4]

When the speaker says "first they came for the Jews", what he (the author of the words is a man) refers to is the regular persecution of Jews in Europe, which culmunated in the holocaust, this persecution included all of the following:

(A) Jews are prohibited from all legal practices. (first they prohibited the Jewish doctors from treating the non-Jewish pacients)
(B) Jewish students are banned from all non-Jewish German schools.

the following was false, as they were actually made to wear the Star of David, to identify them better
(C) Jews are forbidden from wearing any religious symbols.

This does not apply to the treatment of Jews by the Germans but to the general lack of support for the Jews, but it's still true:
(D) The ship "Struma" leaves Romania for Palestine. "Struma," carrying 769 Jews is denied permission by British authorities to allow the passengers to disembark at the Haifa docks or anywhere else on the Israeli shore.

This, as far as I know it not specifically true or not well-known who the first victims of gassing were, but it seems unlikely that they were not mostly Jewish or political prisoners. So, although it's possible, the following is not common knowledge:
(E) The first gassing victims include 5,000 gypsies who were deemed unnecessary to society.

the correct answer is: a, b and d
