Answer:

This question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Fermentation is carried out regularly, and not only during oxygen emergencies, by what organisms?

A) most animals

B) many fungi and bacteria

C) plants, during the night time

D) all organisms, all of the time

The Correct answer is B (Many fungi and bacteria)

Explanation:

All living organisms need energy for their life processes, although different ways are employed by different organisms. Most living organisms use oxygen to make ATP from glucose. However, many living things can also make ATP without oxygen.

Organisms like plants, fungi and some bacteria undergo aerobic respiration in the presence of oxygen but can use anaerobic respiration when oxygen is in short supply. However, certain bacteria and fungi (yeast) employ only anaerobic respiration. They may not even survive in aerobic conditions i.e. they are strictly anaerobic organisms. One important way of making ATP without oxygen is called FERMENTATION.

Fermentation is the metabolic process by which organic molecules (glucose) are converted into acids, gases, or alcohol in the absence of oxygen. Fermentation is of two types; Lactic acid fermentation (pyruvate to lactic acid) and Alcoholic fermentation (pyruvate to alcohol and CO2). NAD+ is generated in both process to facilitate the release of ATP.

Fermentation only yields a net of 2 ATP per glucose molecule (through glycolysis) unlike aerobic respiration, which yields as many as 32 molecules of ATP per glucose molecule using oxidative phosphorylation.

Explain how the bacteria and animals around the hydrothermal vents showed scientists that life was much more adaptable than they
lisov135 [29]

Explanation:  

Well, its extremely hot in the hydrothermal vents. Scientists simply believed it would be impossible for anything to survive due to the heat. Bacteria and micro-organisms were able to adapt to growing there, though. So in short words, they survived extreme conditions teaching scientists that life was quite adaptable.

Weird fun fact: In Switzerland it is illegal to own just one guinea pig. Felt the need to mention that ^ Sorry, I know it has nothing to do with the question but i felt it was worth speaking of.

What is an example of abiotic part of an environment
guajiro [1.7K]
Water
Soil
The sun
Atmospheric Gases
Temperature. 
These are just a few of many, but all abiotic factors are not living. Hence A-Biotic
Biotic means living, so when you put the ''a'' prefix it means the opposite of living.
