Question

the fact that cellular respiration in aerobic organisms produces 18 times more atp molecules led to

• 5 points

yes no
extinction of anaerobes
rise of aerobes
rise of multicellular organisms
complex life forms
the biosphere of today

Explanation:

Aerobic organisms' efficient ATP - production from cellular respiration gave them an advantage. This led to the rise of aerobes as they could out - compete in energy - demanding environments. It also contributed to the evolution of multicellular and complex life forms which require more energy. The modern biosphere is shaped by this energy - efficient respiration. Anaerobes did not go extinct as they can survive in anaerobic environments.

Answer:

extinction of anaerobes: NO
rise of aerobes: YES
rise of multicellular organisms: YES
complex life forms: YES
the biosphere of today: YES
