Why does atp production via oxidative phosphorylation require an intact mitochondrial membrane?

Answer:

Production of ATP via oxidative phosphorylation require an intact mitochondrial membrane because of the creation of an electrical potential.

Explanation:

Oxidative phosphorylation is a method, in which energy is converted into ATP by a sequence of protein complexes located inside the mitochondrial inner membrane. Production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation requires an intact mitochondrial membrane because a change in electrical charge between both sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane results in the creation of an electrical potential. The protons have accumulated on the exterior of the mitochondria, making it positive (H), while the protons have been lost within, making it negative. On each surface of the membrane, a differential or gradient in chemical concentration has been formed. The cell transmits the energy stored in the decreased NADH and FADH via the electrochemical gradient.

The renal tubule is the part of the nephron which contains the filtrate after leaving the bowman's capsule. The filtrate moves to the collecting duct system after passing through the renal tubule. The components of the renal tubule are; (i) Proximal convoluted tubule, which help to increase the area of absorption (ii) Loop of Henle, which help to maintain the correct water balance in the body by filtering out salts (iii) Distal convoluted tubule and (iv) Connecting tubule.

PLEASE ANSWER !
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The pressure of a gas increases in a closed container if the volume of the gas decreases. Pressure and volume have inverse relationship which means if one increases the other decreases and vice versa. If pressure increases, volume of a gas decreases because there are a lot of empty spaces present between gas particles which are filled when gas particles come closer to each other due to pressure applied.
