Bacteria that are growing using fermentation typically grow more slowly that bacteria growing using aerobic respiration. Why is this?  Note:  there are two reasons for this phenomenon.  One has to do with energy yield; the other has to do with the nature of fermentation products. Reason a.  (1 point) Reason b.  (1 points)

Refer to the table. Suppose that you have done some work for a neighbor and the neighbor offers you two payment options, A and B. The expected payoff for option B is: Option Payoff A Guaranteed payment $50 B A coin is tossed, payment made if heads comes up $100

  Quantity of Labor Quantity of Output (Q) Marginal Physical Product (MPP) Total Fixed Cost (TFC)   Variable Cost (Wage) Total Cost (TC) Marginal Cost (MC)    0     0   $0  $0 $0   1 5 (A) $0 $5 $5 (B) Assume that labor is the only variable input. Based on the above table, what is the marginal physical product (MPP) of the first unit of labor (A), and what is the marginal cost (MC) of producing this good with one unit of labor (B) [blanks (A) and (B)]?

You and your partner are watching a classic spy thriller movie.  Rather than being captured and interrogated, the enemy agent takes cyanide and dies, quickly. Your partner, a non-scientist, asks you why the cyanide was deadly. a.  Which glucose catabolic process (eg., glycolysis) is inhibited by cyanide? (1 point) b.  Why is inhibiting this process (your answer to part “a”) deadly so quickly?  (2 points) -Be very specific in your answers to “a” and “b”.  To receive full credit you must provide the name of the process that is inhibited by the cyanide (eg., glycolysis), and you must explain why this results in quick death. c.  You and your partner decide to test the effects of cyanide on a culture of bacteria that are obligate fermenters.  To your surprise, the bacteria aren’t killed by the cyanide.  Why not?  (2 points)
