Match each microbial process with its effectiveness.
showed the highest pollutant degradation overall|degraded hydrocarbons, but not as effectively as vesicle producers|showed almost no pollutant degradation|degraded hydrocarbons, but less effectively than oxygenases

What role do membrane proteins play in microbial degradation of hydrocarbons?
Arrange the steps of microbial hydrocarbon degradation in the correct order. Place the first step at the top of the list.
Match each microbial structure or process with its function.
detects and attaches to hydrocarbons|breaks hydrocarbons into smaller droplets|converts hydrocarbons into CO₂ and H₂O
Determine whether each microbial component is primarily involved in starting the degradation process or increasing the efficiency of degradation.
