Bioremediation of uranium depends on
A) fermentation and oxidation.
B) methanogens.
C) metal-reducing bacteria.
D) sulfur-oxidizing bacteria.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bioremediation of uranium involves the use of metal-reducing bacteria, which can convert insoluble uranium compounds into soluble forms that can be taken up by plants or adsorbed onto soil particles, reducing the environmental impact of uranium contamination. Fermentation and oxidation, methanogens, and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria are not directly involved in uranium bioremediation.
