Answer: Without bacteria life as we know it would not be possible.

Explanation:

Bacteria play a major role in processing organic waste in every environment. If all bacteria are eliminated from an environment, waste would pile up. Plants depend on nitrogen fixing bacteria to convert unusable gaseous nitrogen into usable nitrogenous compounds such as ammonia, without which they could not survive. Most vertebrate, and many invertebrates depend on bacteria living in their guts to help digest food. Ruminants, for example, depend on bacteria in the rumen of the stomach to break down cellulose, allowing them to survive on grasses with very little nutritional value.

Where does nad+ deliver electrons compared to fad in cellular respiration?

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The correct answer would be "NADH delivers its electrons to complex I and FADH₂ deliver its electrons to complex II" in cellular respiration.

There are mainly four complexes associated with electron transport chain of cellular respiration.

Complex I or NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase is the complex at which NADH is oxidized to form NAD⁺. The free electrons are transported with the help of ubiquinone.

Complex II or succinate dehydrogenase is the complex associated with oxidation of FADH₂ to FAD⁺. It also transports the free electrons with the help of the ubiquinone pool.

Complex III or cytochrome bc1 complex transport free electrons from ubiquinone to the cytochrome C which is a water-soluble electron carrier.

Complex IV or cytochrome c oxidase transport the free electrons to oxygen to form water.
