Indicate structural adaptations of Mitochondria for its function​

Biology
1 answer:
Tpy6a [65]2 years ago
7 0

Mitochondria(Mt) are the cell's "power stations" because the energy currency for the metabolic processes in the cell is synthesised inside this organelle via aerobic respiration. This process is known as oxidative phosphorylation. Mt is a double membraned, semi-autonomous organelle.

The mitochondrion's structure is specially tailored to the function it performs:

  • The outer membrane contains carrier proteins that allow pyruvate produced during glycolysis to be transported from the cytoplasm.
  • The electron transport chain(a series of protein complexes) and ATP synthase are located in the inner membrane to transfer electrons and ATP production respectively.
  • The inner membrane is folded into numerous pockets called cristae, which raises the surface area: volume ratio.
  • When proton accumulation occurs, the small intermembrane space between two membranes increases the hydrogen gradient.
  • Matrix is the core chamber containing the necessary enzymes and pH for the Krebs cycle(oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from pyruvate) to take place.

miv72 [106K]

The nurses auscultated for heart sounds in the area of Erb point.

The fifth point of auscultation for the heart test, known as "Erb's point," which is occasionally given to the eminent German neurologist Wilhelm Heinrich Erb (1840–1921) without any supporting documentation, is positioned in the third intercostal gap near the sternum. At the third intercostal gap and the left lower sternal border is the auscultation location for heart sounds and heart murmurs known as Erb's point.

The spinal accessory nerve in the posterior nerve triangle is located at Erb's point (also known as the great auricular nerve) at the location where it enters the trapezius muscle. At the end of expiration, the third intercostal gap on the left (Erb's point) is often the ideal place to detect the murmur of aortic regurgitation because it is quiet, high-pitched, early diastolic and decrescendo.

KiRa [710]

a feedback mechanism that maintains homeostasis

Explanation:

Anhidorosis mostly directly interferes with a feedback mechanism that interferes directly with a feedback mechanism that maintains homeostasis.

Since anhidorosis is the inability to properly or normally sweat, it affects the process of homeostasis.

Homeostasis is an important characteristics of life.

It is the ability of organisms to maintain and sustain a balance environment within and outside of them.

Sweating is one such process by which the body carries out homeostasis. On a hot day, the body produces sweat which evaporates and release latent heat to cool the body. This inability affects the intricate balance between the environment and the body.
