Question

Select the correct answer.

Scientists recently discovered a species of bacteria that’s capable of photosynthesis, but it’s anaerobic and doesn’t produce or use oxygen for respiration. Which process will be absent in this organism?

Answer 1

The process that will be absent in this organism is aerobic respiration. Since the organism is anaerobic and doesn't produce or use oxygen for respiration, it will rely on other metabolic pathways to generate energy without the use of oxygen.
