what is the following for Methanogenesis?

-What is the initial electron donor?

-What is the TEA?

-Other methanogens oxidize methylated organic compounds

Solution

ANSWER :

* Methanogenesis is the formation of methane by microbes known as methanogens.It is the first step in decomposition process.

* Hydrogen is the initial electron donar in methanogenesis

*TEA -- Terminal Electron Accepting , methanogenesis is a terminal electron accepting process.

*Aerobic methanotrophs require both methane and oxygen for oxidising methylated organic compounds.
