QUESTION 3 Bioremediation is a branch of biotechnology that employs the use of living organisms to remove toxic substances; such as, mercury, radioactive material, industrial waste, and the petroleum products of oil spills from the water and soil in our environment. Here is a figure that shows the bacterial degradation of the poly-aromatic hydrocarbon, naphthalene. In this figure showing the catabolic metabolism of naphthalene, would you predict the metabolites catechol, salicylate, and gentisate generated in this process to (select one): Proposed catabolic pathways of naphthalene by bacteria 1,2-Naphthoquinone Coumarin Catechol تمل OH ОН OHL OH OH ОН ď CHO OH H OH Naphthalene cis-1,2-Dihydroxy- 1,2-dihydronaphthalene 1,2-Dihydroxynaphthalene COOH OH 2-Hydroxy-2H-chromene- 2-carboxylic acid cis-o-Hydroxybenzalpyruvate COOH 2-Hydroxybenzaldehyde OH Gentiate COOF 10 COOH
