The photosynthetic process used by the green sulfur bacteria, under anaerobic conditions, is best represented by which of the following balanced equations? 6CO2 + 12H2S g C6H12O6 + 6S2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 g C12H22O11 + H2O 6CO2 + 12H2O g C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O C12H22O11 + H2O g C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O g 6CO2 + 12H2Oarrow_forwardQ8. Which of the following statements is thought to be the underlying reason for why a typical eukaryotic cell is more complex than a typical aerobic bacterial cell? A. A eukaryotic cell has a greater plasma membrane area / cell volume ratio than a bacterium. B. A eukaryotic cell has a greater number of electron transport chains than a bacterium. C. An aerobic bacterium lacks membranes required for electron transport. D. An aerobic bacterium cannot undergo oxidative phosphorylation.arrow_forward
- Provide the balanced chemical reaction for cellular respiration.arrow_forwardA- Name 5 organisms that can carry out nitrification. B- Write the chemical reaction. C- What enzyme carries out the process? Briefly explain how it works.arrow_forwardMAKE CONNECTIONS As noted in Figure 52.15, theaddition of nutrients to a lake can cause an algal bloom.When these algae die, complex molecules in their bodiesare broken down by decomposers using aerobic respiration. Explain why this would reduce the lake’s oxygenlevels (see Concept 9.1)arrow_forward
- Q14: What class of reactions does NAD*/NADH usually participate in and would you expect the ratio of oxidized (NAD*) to reduced NADH to be high or low? Q15: What class of reactions does NADP*/NADPH usually participate in and would you expect the ratio of oxidized (NADP*) to reduced NADPH to be high or low?arrow_forwardTease 10. Like rotenone, cyanide is a broad-spectrum poison that affects many organisms. In fact, most poisons that act on the citric acid cycle, electron transport chain, and ATP synthase are broad- spectrum. What does this suggest about the evolution and conservation of these pathways?arrow_forwardNumber answers thanksarrow_forward
- Please answer fastarrow_forwardplease draw! Create a model which accurately, in detail, depicts the potential pathways of carbon (biomass) and energy in an ecosystem with at least five trophic levels (don’t forget your decomposers, they can count as one trophic level). Make sure to incorporate the multiple pathways that biomass and energy could take at each trophic level. Lastly, clearly illustrate how carbon and energy flow in this ecosystem. Be sure to include adequate levels of detail for all pathways and differentiate the flow of carbon and energy in your model.arrow_forwardHow do methane effects human health in climate change?
