Q3.17. In a plant like the one on the right, wastewater firstdecomposes aerobically in large pools before moving to ananaerobic digester. Which of the following would be anadvantage of the initial aerobic decomposition?O Aerobic decomposition breaks down the wastewater morequickly and more completely.O. Aerobic decomposition adds oxygen to the atmosphere,which improves air quality for nearby inhabitants.Aerobic decomposition needs less oxygen and thus requiresless energy to aerate the wastewater.Aerobic decomposition produces more methane and othergases, which could be used to produce energy.

When organic materials decompose in the presence of oxygen, the process is called “aerobic.” The…

You are talking with a winemaker about yeast. "I know that yeast can survive under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions," he says, "but what I don't understand is why they seem to need so much more sugar under anaerobic conditions. I think they gobble a hundred times as much sugar." Can you explain to him why yeast might need more sugar under anaerobic conditions than under aerobic conditions? Is his estimation of a hundred times as much sugar reasonable?
1. You set up two cultures with an equal amounts of Escherichia coli. You label one culture "A" and the other "B." Each culture is given 100mL of tryptic soy nutrient broth. You then take culture A and incubate it in the absence of oxygen and take culture B and incubate it in the presence of oxygen for one week. If E. coli is able to use both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism, the how would we classify it? Is it an obligate aerobe, obligate anaerobe, or a facultative anaerobe? Based on that information, which flask, A or B, would have more cells at the end of the week? Fully explain your answer.
