Compare and contrast the enzymes catalase, superoxide dismutase, and superoxide reductase from the following points of view: substrates, oxygen products, organisms containing them, and their role in oxygen tolerance of the cell.
We know that atmospheric oxygen (O2) can be a final electron acceptor at the end of the electron transport chain in aerobic respiration.
Name 2 other inorganic molecules that can be final electron acceptors at the end of the electron transport chain in anaerobic respiration.
Name 1 organic molecule that can be a final electron acceptor in fermentation.
Imagine you are trying to use an organism to remove organic matter in a wastewater treatment plant (i.e., poop). You would like to maximize the amount of waste consumed while also minimizing the amount of cells produced.
Assuming these organisms exist and all other things are equal, what combination of chemoorganotrophic organism and environment would make the most sense to use?
An organism that only has the Entner-Duoduroff pathway under anaerobic conditions.
This was a trick question – the organism would have to be a chemolithotroph since it is consuming a chemical.
An organism that only has the Entner-Duoduroff pathway under aerobic conditions.
An organism that only has the Embden Meyer Parnas pathway under anaerobic conditions.
An organism that only has the Embden Meyer Parnas pathway under anaerobic conditions.
