Question
which statement could be categorized only in the anaerobic section of the venn diagram?
is performed by eukaryotes
has commercial uses
regenerates nadh
occurs in the mitochondria
Brief Explanations
- Eukaryotes can perform both aerobic and anaerobic processes, so "is performed by eukaryotes" is not exclusive to anaerobic.
- Both aerobic and anaerobic processes have commercial uses, for example, aerobic respiration in bioremediation and anaerobic fermentation in alcohol - production.
- Anaerobic respiration regenerates NAD+ from NADH to keep glycolysis going, and this is a key feature exclusive to anaerobic processes in the context of cellular respiration compared to aerobic where the electron - transport chain is involved in NADH oxidation.
- Aerobic respiration occurs mainly in the mitochondria, while anaerobic respiration occurs in the cytoplasm. So "occurs in the mitochondria" is not for anaerobic.
