This is a cellular respiration question, related to biology.
Some processes in our bodies require the use oxygen, others do not.
In this case, the conversion of pyruvic acid to acetyl co-enzyme A and the production of water in the electron transport chain do require oxygen.
If oxygen was not present for pyruvate, it would turn into lactic acid via fermentation. Water in the ETC is formed in the process when NADH and FADH2 are converted to molecular oxygen due to the electron transporters. The protons are then pumped and oxygen is reduced to form H2O.
Answer:
The graph shows that the population of bacteria is increasing with the passage of time. During 1st hour, the population of bacteria is 50 per ml. In second hour, the population is doubled i. e. 100 per ml. In the 3rd hour, the population reaches to 200 per ml and in 3 and half hours, the population touches the value of 300 per ml. So the graph clearly shows that population is double with each hour.
