Answer 10

organic electron acceptor is acetaldehyde

Question 11

what 4 things characterize chemolithotropy?

Answer 11

1. uses reduced inorganic -e donor
2. e- go through electron transport pathway
3. e- are used to reduce final electron donor
4. ATP and NADH are used to convert CO2 to sugars

Question 12

in regards to electron transfer, how is chemolithotrophy special

Answer 12

electron transport occurs in two directions

Question 13

Define anoxygenic photosynthesis

Answer 13

Organic or inorganic electron donor, and the final electron acceptor is oxidized photosynthetic pigment
- cyclic, one pigment used

Question 14

Define Oxygenic photosynthesis

Answer 14

electron donor is H2O, and the final electron acceptor is NAD or NADP
- noncyclic, two pigments used
