Ascientist is studying the respiration reactions carried out by a certain bacterium. which of these would indicate that the respiration reactions occurring are anaerobic?

a. ethanol is produced.

b. ethanol is produced.

c. glucose is consumed

d. oxygen is consumed

Ans.

Anaerobic respiration involves breakdown of organic compounds into simple compounds in the absence of oxygen for energy production. It is performed by various bacteria, yeast and animal and plant cells under hypoxic conditions. Glucose is consumed during both aerobic and anaerobic respiration

During anaerobic respiration, glucose is converted into lactic acid or ethanol, with carbon dioxide and release of energy as ATP molecules.

Thus, options (A) and (B) are correct as production of ethanol would indicate that the respiration reactions occurring are anaerobic.

gregor john mendel is known for study of inheritance in pea plants. he used garden pea plant for his study, having alternative traits for various characters. he performed cross-breeding in pea plants to check how characters are transmitted between parents to offspring, such as cross between pure tall and pure dwarf plant. mendel studied the inheritance patterns in pea plants for various generations.

thus, the correct answer includes options and f).
