A high-energy electron is transferred along an electron transport chain to the inner mitochondrial membrane. Hydrogen is pumped out of the matrix space by the energy released. Through ATP synthase, the gradient produced by this forces hydrogen back through the membrane. when participating in the crucial process of oxidative phosphorylation.

Only a tiny portion of the glucose's totally free energy is released when it is transformed into pyruvate by the glycolytic process.
The breakdown of glucose into pyruvate within a cell's cytoplasm is known as glycolysis. The final phase of cellular respiration, known as oxidative phosphorylation, generates ATP using an ATP synthase gradient and a hydrogen ion gradient. The majority of the ATP produced during cellular respiration is produced during this process. Pyruvate can diffuse into mitochondria under aerobic conditions, where it enters the citric acid cycle and has reducing equivalents in the forms of NADH and FADH2.

What would earth be like without the greenhouse effect?
schepotkina [342]
Freezing. The greenhouse effect is the way how earth is kept warm , as the heat radiation is trapped through the gasses ( gasses reflect the radiation back to earth) without the green house effect, the earth I assume would be all "iced up"and " bare and bold" up, and life (as we know it ) would not survive ( some others forms of life may take place but we never know...)

Personal opinion , free to accept other ideas .

Help asap true or false Uranus orbits the Sun at less than 40% of the speed of Venus.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The attached image shows a table that displays the eight (8) planets, their respective average distance from the sun and their respective orbital speeds.

The question only relates the orbital speed of planets Uranus and Venus, which is 7km/s and 35km/s respectively.

40% of the orbital speed of planet Venus is:

= 40/100 × 35

= 0.4 × 35

= 14

According to the table in the image, Uranus orbits around the sun at a speed of 7km/s, which is lesser than 40% of Venus's orbital speed (14km/s).

Therefore, it is TRUE that Uranus orbits the sun at less than 40% of the orbital speed of Venus.

A local community needs to provide more electricity for its growing population. Currently, the community's electricity needs are
zepelin [54]
D) All of these
Reason: All of these could be used as an alternative energy resource to help minimize air pollution in this community. Solar energy can be captured with solar panels and used to produce electrical energy or to heat systems directly. Wind energy can be captured using wind turbines, which turn generators to produce electricity. Hydroelectric energy can be produced by using the energy of running water to turn generators. Although all types of alternative energy resources have various advantages and disadvantages, these three all share the advantage of not producing air pollution

Hope this helped. :)
