Answer:
The correct answer is True.
Explanation:
The genus Cytophaga are gram-negative, unicellular bacteria that have the capability to glide. They may be aerobes, facultative anaerobes or microaerophilic. All the members of genus Cytophaga are organotrophs.
The members have lytic enzymes that help them to obtain energy from a wide range of carbohydrate sources like dextrin, cellulose, chitin, pectin, starch, gelatin, etc.
So due to the capability to breakdown polymeric carbohydrates, it plays important part in the sewage treatment process. Therefore genus Cytophaga is capable of digesting a wide range of complex carbohydrates and is important for degrading raw sewage.
