The answer is c. oxygen.

Cellular respiration includes glycolysis, link reaction, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain (ETC), in that order. The main function of ETC is a production of ATP.  In this series of oxidation-reduction reactions, electrons from the previous stages of cellular respiration are taken and transported to the oxygen which is the final acceptor of electrons. As the result, water and ATP are produced.

how do ionizing radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and visible light harm microorganisms? how do microorganisms protect themselve
7nadin3 [17]

Microorganism protect themselves against harmful UV light and visible light by using Iron minerals around themselves.

The iron minerals have unique properties in that they block damaging UV radiation while yet allowing organisms to utilise the portion of sunlight required for photosynthesis. UV rays kill cells by damaging their DNA. Two molecules of thymine, one of the bases that makes up DNA, react when exposed to light. The thymine dimer that results is extremely stable. The cell cannot perform its usual tasks if cellular processes are interfered as a result of an inadequate repair or unrepaired damage of thymine dimer.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: b. chemoautotrophs

Explanation: chemoautotrophs are organisms that obtain energy, molecules, water by the oxidation of electron donors in their environments. Chemoautotrophs are able to synthesize their own organic molecules from inorganic sources. They are different from phototrophs who requires sunlight to make their own food
