In the electron transport chain, protons are pumped from where to where in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells?

1 answer:

8 0

In the electron transport chain, protons are pumped from the <u>mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space</u>, and oxygen is reduced to form water.

The energy derived from the transfer of electrons through the electron transport chain is used to pump protons, as a result, an electrochemical gradient is generated, consisting of a proton gradient and a membrane potential.

The energy created by the formation of this gradient is then harnessed to form ATP as the protons travel down their gradient into the matrix through the ATP synthase channel.

The electron transport and ATP production occur simultaneously and are tightly coupled.

What is the pressure of 0.540 mol of an ideal gas at 35.5 L and 223 K?

Inga [223]

Answer:

Pressure, P = 28.2 kPa

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of moles, n = 0.54 mol

Volume of ideal gas, V = 35.5 L

Temperature, T = 223 K

We need to find the pressure of ideal gas. The equation of ideal gas is given by :

$PV=nRT$

R is gas constant

P is pressure

$P=\dfrac{nRT}{V}\\\\P=\dfrac{0.54\ mol\times 8.314\ kPa- L/mol- K\times 223\ K}{35.5\ L}\\\\P=28.2\ kPa$

So, the pressure of the gas is 28.2 kPa.

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

One thing that I can contribute to the NC State Community campus diversity is my culture and my background.

I’m a first-generation American born Nigerian. My parents are from Nigeria and relocated to America some years before I was born. This as lead to basically two influences in my life, the influence of the Nigerian culture from my parents and my community, and the influence of the U.S. culture.

Basically, these are the two influences in my life, I had to mix the varying unique ways to living into one and take good advantage of life out of both worlds.

At majority of the time, my beliefs align with the beliefs of a typical Nigerian but at other times I see myself conflicted due to the varying or separate backgrounds.

I believe in living a day at a time and to enjoy the present moment so as to get the best from both backgrounds which has structured me into the person I am today.
