Chapter 5, Problem 1CTS
Summary Introduction
To write:
Five potential changes, which can help in reduction of carbon footprint at an individual level.
The changes, which would have the greatest impact on reduction of carbon foot print.
The difficulty that can be faced to make these changes.
Introduction:
The carbon footprint can be described as the amount of green house gas especially one carbon dioxide produced by a person. The amount of gas produced by an organization is referred as organization's carbon footprint.

Which of the following are consequences of anaerobic respiration? (Check all that apply.)
Group of answer choices
Some bacteria may cause denitrification.
Bacteria are able to reduce the levels of NO3− in sewage plant effluents.
Animals are able to occupy more ecological niches than bacteria.
Some bacteria are able to readily survive in both well-oxygenated as well as anoxic environments.
Compare anaerobic respiration/fermentation with aerobic respiration(including
glycolysis) in terms of energy output, location, reactants and products and
efficiency.
