Medicinal chemists that synthesize drugs to kill pathogenic protozoans aim to target a novel mechanism to promote selective toxicity.  The reason there are fewer antiprotozoal drugs compared to antibacterials is that ________.

A. there are few novel molecular mechanisms in protozoa compared to human hosts since both are eukaryotes, so toxicity is an issue B. protozoans are not pathogenic compared to bacteria so developing drugs is not cost-effective C. most antiprotozoal drugs also kill bacteria so they are not given their own category D. targeting novel mechanisms in protozoans is far more costly than it is for bacterial cells

How do the products of glycolysis and Krebs cycle relate to the electron transport chain?

Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle use CO2, which is produced in the electron transport chain. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle produce CO2, which binds to electrons in the electron transport chain. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle produce the ATP necessary to start the electron transport chain. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle produce the molecules that shuttle electrons to the electron transport chain. Glycolysis and Krebs cycle are the final receptors for electrons that flow through the electron transport chain.
