(sorry it wont let me post the picture link) The diagram illustrates part of the carbon cycle.
(A fawn eating grass.)

Which best describes the diagram?
A consumer is obtaining carbon by breathing it in from the atmosphere.
A consumer is obtaining carbon by absorbing it from the soil.
A consumer is obtaining carbon by eating carbon-based molecules stored in a producer.
A consumer is obtaining carbon by eating carbon-based molecules stored in a decomposer.

both anaerobic and aerobic respiration use glucose (or other carbohydrates), proteins and lipids to produce atp and nadh. cell uses those energy molecules, obtained from food and   breaks them down during the chemical reactions of respiration. in anaerobic respiration, nadh is regenerated to nad+ by enzymes lactate dehydrogenase (lactate is produced, e.g. in muscle cells) or by alcohol dehydrogenase where ethanol is produced (alcohol fermentation), while in aerobic respiration, electrons from nadh are deposited in the mitochondria to regenerate nad+ (electron transport chain. anaerobic respiration produces 2 atp per molecule of glucose compared to aerobic respiration where about 38 atp molecules are produced.

nucleic acid molecules are incredibly complex, containing the code that guarantees the four different nucleotide units comprise dna, the nucleic acid of interest to the genealogist. and one of four nitrogen-containing molecules called nucleotides
