The answer to your question is C!
Answer:
It is a facultative anaerobic organism.
Explanation:
This organism makes ATP (energy provider molecule) by aerobic respiration in presence of oxygen, but when oxygen is removed it is capable of switching to fermentation (sugar consumption increases and growth rate decreases).
This happens because fermentation is much less effective at producing ATP and therefore there is not enough energy for growth.
This organisms are called facultative anaerobic.
Organisms with this type of metabolism include bacteria like Escherichia coli and Salmonella or yeast like Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
In geology, a key bed (syn marker bed) is a relatively thin layer of sedimentary
rock that is readily recognized on the basis of either its distinct
physical characteristics or fossil content and can be mapped over a very
large geographic area.[1]
As a result, a key bed is useful for correlating sequences of
sedimentary rocks over a large area. Typically, key beds were created as
the result of either instantaneous events or (geologically speaking)
very short episodes of the widespread deposition of a specific types of sediment. As the result, key beds often can be used for both mapping and correlating sedimentary rocks and dating them. Volcanic ash beds ( and bentonite beds) and impact spherule beds, and specific megaturbidites
are types of key beds created by instantaneous events. The widespread
accumulation of distinctive sediments over a geologically short period
of time have created key beds in the form of peat beds, coal beds, shell beds, marine bands, black in cyclothems, and oil shales. A well-known example of a key bed is the global layer of iridium-rich impact ejecta that marks the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary (K–T boundary). Please let me know if it works.
