Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The anammox process is a unique anaerobic process in which ammonium is oxidized into nitrogen gas using nitrite as an electron acceptor. This process must take place in the absence of oxygen, making choice C correct. The end product of the anammox process is nitrogen gas, making choice B correct. And finally, choice A is also correct since the anaerobic oxidation of ammonia is indeed coupled to the reduction of nitrite in the anammox process. Therefore, all choices are correct, making D the best answer.
