Question

Question 4. Write major electron donors for the following electron acceptors: O₂, NO₃⁻, SO₄²⁻, Fe³⁺, CO₂, and Mn⁴⁺. Why are other electron acceptors not able to produce as much energy as O₂? Explain in detail with respect to their processes (How are they all different from O₂).

Step 1

- O₂: The major electron donor for O₂ is NADH or FADH₂, which are produced during cellular respiration. - NO₃⁻: The major electron donor for NO₃⁻ is organic matter, such as sugars or fatty acids, which are broken down by bacteria in the process of Show more…
