10 protons are pumped by the membrane-associated electron transport system across the membrane for every molecule of NADH that is oxidized.

<h3>Electron transport chain:</h3>

Two protons are pumped across the membrane by this last complex in the electron transport chain, which also completes the ultimate transfer of electrons to oxygen. NADH molecule enters the electron transfer chain after passing a total of 10 protons across the membrane.

The inner membrane of the mitochondria contains a number of chemical compounds and proteins that make up the electron transport chain. In a sequence of redox reactions, electrons are transferred from one component of the transport chain to another. In these processes, energy is released as a proton gradient, which is then utilized to produce ATP through a process known as chemiosmosis. Oxidative phosphorylation is a process that involves both chemiosmosis and the electron transport chain.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

The evolutionary tree is composed of,

  • Lineages → These are the taxonomic groups of interest placed in the extremes of the lines called branches ⇒ Elephant species X, Y, Z
  • Nodes → These are the ramification points, which are also known as divergence points. They represent the location of the most recent common ancestor ⇒ The red spot in the graph shows the location o the most recent ancestor between species X and Y
  • Root → This is the older common ancestor that all lineages share. The first one in the tree ⇒ The blue spot in the graph show the oldest common ancestor shared by the three species

Two or more lineages are more related to each other if they share a recent common ancestor -In this example, X and Y are more related to each other-. This means that they all diverge from the same node.

Two or more lineages are less related to each other if they lack a recent common ancestor. This is, the node from which these lineages diverge is placed far away in the tree.

Dennis_Churaev [7]
There are no choices available but in biology this process is called Budding. It is a type of asexual reproduction in plants where new organisms develop from a bud which results to cellular divisions in that particular site. During this process the organism grows attached to the parent organism and then it separates in adulthood.
