Using the table below, what is the best method for obtaining energy from catabolizing ethanol, and why? 
A) the catabolism of ethanol without an oxidant, because the DG is almost positive
B) the oxidation of ethanol with 
as the oxidant is because of the large yield of energy released
C) the oxidation of ethanol with oxygen, because the DG is the largest negative number indicating the large yield of energy released.
D) The oxidation of ethanol yields too little biomass to be catabolized.
E) None-ethanol can only be catabolized syntrophically.
