A microbiologist is characterizing a newly discovered microorganism that requires an anaerobic environment to live and uses either lactic acid or alcoholic fermentation in its energy metabolism. Which would be a way to determine the type of fermentation the microorganism uses

The correct answer is - Analyze whether one molecule of CO2 is released for every one molecule of glucose fermented

Explanation:

Fermentation can be described as the process that breaks down the glucose-like molecules in absence of oxygen or anaerobically. There are different types of fermentation depending on the items they produce in used those products. The three types of fermentation are Lactic acid fermentation, alcoholic fermentation, and acetic acid fermentation.

One can determine the type of fermentation by analyzing the products they produced and the amount of carbon dioxide they produce for every one molecule of glucose fermented as lactic acid fermentation do not produce carbon dioxide whereas alcoholic fermentation produces two moles of CO2 per mole of glucose.

this protocol provides a detailed procedure for co-immunoprecipitation (co-ip) to identify protein–protein interactions.

white blood cells or wbc s are mainly 2 types-

1.agranulocytes

2.granulocytes

the monocytes or macrophages of agranulocytes , dendritic cells which are accessory leucocytes, and b cells which is one type of lymphocytes   identify the antigens present on the pathogen's surface. these three cells are called antigen presenting cells(apc) which are phagocytes and destroy the antigens by secreting antitoxins. besides this leukocyte is always plays vital role in the immunity of the body.
