When making bread with common yeast, the reaction starts as an aerobic process and then becomes an anaerobic process after the oxygen is spent. A baker has created a new strain of yeast which contains no cytochrome c gene and, thus, no cytochrome c protein. This will affect what the yeast strain can do to obtain energy.
What will this yeast strain do more of, compared to a normal strain?
A.
electron transport
B.
carbon dioxide production
C.
fermentation
D.
ATP synthesis
All antioxidants_____ . a. prevent other molecules from being oxidized b. are coenzymes c. balance charge d. deoxidize free radicals
Circle the letter of the sentence that is FALSE about cellular respirationa. aerobic respiration consumes organic molecules and O2 and yields ATPb. fermentation is a partial degradation of sugars that occurs without O2 c. Cellular respiration includes only aerobic respiration d. Anaerobic respiration is similar to aerobic respiration but consumes compounds other than O2
