A baker activates yeast cells with hot water, and adds sugar as their source of food. As the yeast begin their metabolic process
es, the bowl it is in is covered with plastic so that no oxygen can get to them. At this point, the yeast will __ * 1 point
a. produce far more ATP than is necessary in response to the lack of oxygen
b. continue to go through aerobic respiration if enough sugar is present
c. die since all living organisms need oxygen to survive.
d. perform anaerobic respiration in the absence of oxygen
The correct answer would be - option D. perform anaerobic respiration in the absence of oxygen.
Explanation:
Yeast is a facultative anaerobic single-cell organism that can live without oxygen. If yeast cells did not get the oxygen they use anaerobic respiration to get the energy.
If the baker activates these cells and stops them to get oxygen the yeast cells have to switch to anaerobic respiration to survive and produces ethanol and releases carbon dioxide.
Diffusion is the movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The bigger the concentration gradient, the faster the rate of diffusion is.
Vaccines fight outbreaks by creating heard immunity. If more people are innoculated against the virus then they protect vulnerable populations from getting sick
