Bovine __________ not only make a significant contribution to global methane, they also divert carbon from meat production.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming, and methanogenes are microorganisms that produce methane. Bovine (cows) are known to have methanogenic bacteria in their digestive systems, resulting in the production of significant amounts of methane. However, these animals also divert carbon from meat production, which can help reduce carbon emissions from the food industry. Halophiles are salt-loving microorganisms, acidophiles thrive in acidic environments, autotrophs can produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, and thermophiles thrive in high-temperature environments. None of these choices are directly related to the methane production and carbon diversion processes of cows.
