Answer:

This would be the MITOCHONDRIA!

Concept(s):

Mitochondria

- An organelle in the cytoplasm of cells that functions in energy production.

Organelle

- A specialized [art pf a cell having some specific function; a cell organ.

Krebs's cycle

- A cycle of enzyme-catalyzed reactions in living cells that is the final series of reactions of aerobic metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fatty acids, and by which carbon dioxide is produced, oxygen is reduced, and ATP is formed.

Electron

- An elementary particle that is a fundamental constituent of matter, having a negative charge of 1.602 × 10-19 coulombs, a mass of 9.108 × 10-31 kilograms, and spin of 1/2. and existing independently or as the component outside the nucleus of an atom.

Explanation:

In what organelle do both the Krebs cycle and the electron transport system occur?

Mitochondrion

The mitochondria's sole function is to provide the cell with energy, and the only way it can do this is by drawing its power from the ATP molecules created by the Krebs cycle and the electron transport system.

What is the significance of an electron transport chain? Like the energy is already produced in Krebs cycle, so why does the Electron transport chain run?

The chemical processes fueled by enzymes are known as the Kreb's cycle. Since these processes need certain enzymes, they happen inside the mitochondria. 32 molecules of ATP are produced by the Kreb's cycle for every molecule of glucose, Carbon IV oxide, and hydrogen ions.

In the hydrogen ion transport chain, hydrogen ions can enter through a variety of acceptor molecules, such as NAD (nicotinamide adenine), which produces NADH2. Their hydrogen is taken up by oxygen to create water, which releases energy. ADP uses this energy to create ATP.

How does the Krebs cycle and electron transport chain work?

A closed loop is the Krebs or citric acid cycle. The substance utilized in the first step is renewed in the pathway's final stage. In each of the cycle's eight phases, redox, dehydration, hydration, and decarboxylation processes result in the production of two carbon dioxide molecules, one GTP/ATP molecule, and reduced forms of NADH and FADH.

Electron transport is a sequence of redox events where electrons are quickly transferred from one component to the next until they reach the end of the chain where they reduce molecule oxygen to produce water. These redox reactions resemble a relay race or bucket brigade.

The electron transport chain, a sequence of electron transporters that are involved in redox processes, is the source of the majority of the ATP produced during the aerobic catabolism of glucose. As a result, hydrogen ions start to build up in the matrix space. As a result, a concentration gradient develops, allowing hydrogen ions to migrate through ATP synthase and out of the matrix region. The catalytic activity of ATP synthase, which phosphorylates ADP to produce ATP, is driven by the current of hydrogen ions.

Alborosie

Some of the things that would make the experiment invalid would be, if there was a variation in the behavior of the class with respect to food - for example, if some people ate their breakfast earlier than the others. This then would mean that some students would have already digested their breakfast during the morning classes and the others would still be digesting.

When people receive organ transplants, they often need to take medications that decrease immune responses because * 2 points D.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. transplanted organs contain antigens that can trigger white blood cell activity

Explanation:

The body's immune system is designed to seek out and destroy any foreign object it finds in the body, such as a cold or flu virus - or a transplanted organ. The process of destruction of the transplanted organ is called rejection.Immunosuppressive drugs will be provided to prevent your immune system from damaging the transplanted organ. Organ transplants require the use of immunosuppressive drugs capable of controlling the immune response triggered by the presence of antigens foreign to the body itself. The group of immunosuppressants is made up of drugs indicated both in the prevention of rejection of the transplanted organ and in its reversal.

The EKG is hooked up, and Mr. M's trace looks very abnormal. His heart rate is low. The T wave, which indicates repolarization o

azamat

Answer:

This question lacks options, options are: Mr. M's cells are depolarizing too easily. Blocking Nat channels will make it harder for them to depolarize, bringing their sensitivity back to normal O Mr. M has too little K* leaving his cells, so we need to block the Nat channels so the Kt channels can stay open and his cells can repolarize properly. Mr. M has too little K* leaving his cells, so we need to block the Nat channels so the Na /K+ ATPase can move Kt out of the cell effectively O Blocking Na* channels cannot help- it will only make his cells fire less, and he already has a weak heartbeat. Mr. M's cells are not repolarizing properly. Blocking Nat channels will help them repolarize normally, bringing their resting potential back to normal.

The correct answer is ''Mr. M's cells are depolarizing too easily. Blocking Na+ channels will make it harder for them to depolarize, bringing their sensitivity back to normal.''

Explanation:

Calcium administration is an emerging treatment modality aimed at restoring the transmembrane electrical gradient of cardiac myocytes. It probably achieves this goal by reducing the resting membrane potential of cells. Calcium antagonizes the effect of hyperkalemia on cardiac conduction, that is, it antagonizes the effects of K on the heart. Its onset of action is immediate, in a few minutes. Calcium gluconate antagonizes the excitability of the cardiac membrane, that is, it decreases the excitability of the membrane and it does not affect serum levels, it is generally accepted that calcium should be administered when there are ECG changes associated with hyperkalemia.
