FIGURE 12.4 A general diagram of breakdown of organic material across a redox gradient. Organisms are shown in solid boxes, and chemical pools are shown
in dashed boxes. The curved arrows with solid lines indicate alternative electron acceptors for oxidation of organic carbon, and the preferred redox of each of these
transformations approximately corresponds with the redox curve drawn on the right (redrawn from Westermann, 1993).
