Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

<em>Caenorhabditis elegans</em> is a well-known species which is widely used in genetic experiments (i.e., it is a model organism). <em>C. elegans</em> is a soil nematode that eats bacteria, but its survival depends on the ability to distinguish toxic from non-toxic ones. <em>C. elegans</em> cannot feed <em>Bacillus thuringiensis</em> because this bacterium produces a toxin Bt protein that damages its gut, thereby producing the death of this nematode. Interestingly, it has been proposed that Bt toxin pathways might be exploited for the design of new generation nematicides.

Can someone please describe the role of fermentation in maintaining ATP and NAD+ levels? I cant fully grasp the concept. Answer
Solnce55 [7]
Fermentation is the process by which a carbohydrate molecule is broken down into alcohol and carbon dioxide in the absence of oxygen. During this process, two molecules of ATP is produced. In the absence of oxygen, pyruvate formed from glycolysis will undergo fermentation process. During the process of fermentation, NADH from glycolysis will be converted back to NAD+. This is necessary in order for glycolysis to continue. Thus, fermentation regenerate more NAD+ and only a few molecule of ATP.
