Cyanobacteria have been engineered to produce isobutanol directly. What advantage does this have over a inherently renewable fuel source?
A. Multiple processing steps can be avoided.
B. They produce chemical energy through photosynthesis.
C. They make a biofuel alternative to gasoline.
Answer (1)
Engineered cyanobacteria producing isobutanol improve efficiency by eliminating multiple processing steps required in traditional biofuel production. They utilize photosynthesis, making them a sustainable energy source. This technique provides a promising alternative to gasoline as a renewable fuel source. ;
