Chemiosmotic coupling holds true to explain the synthesis of atp by energy released from electron transport chain.

Peter Mitchell suggested that it would be possible to produce ATP by using an electrochemical gradient of protons across a membrane. The process is known as chemiosmosis because he compared it to osmosis, which is the diffusion of water across a membrane. Only a membrane protein known as ATP synthase allows hydrogen ions in the matrix space to pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane.

ADP is converted into ATP by ATP synthase as protons pass through. Oxidative phosphorylation describes the process by which ATP is produced in mitochondria by chemiosmosis. Proton gradient, ATP synthase, and proton pump are the essential elements required for the chemiosmosis process.

Why do adult urochordates (tunicates) lack notochords, even though larval urochordates have them? Larvae use notochords to _____
kirza4 [7]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

A tunicate is marine invertebrate animal  which is a part of chordates. They have notochords and dorsal nerve chord. The subphylum of the organism is called as Urochordata.

The adult urochordates lack notochord but the larval stage of the urochordates have notochord. This is because it helps in swimming of the organism which is required only at the larval stage.

The adult stage of the tunicates is sessile and they do not swim so they do not require notochord.

When bone tissue first evolved in vertebrates, it was found within _____?
Sonbull [250]
Exoskeleton

Exoskeleton is a evolutionary innovation. This is operated by muscles attached to it and acts as an armor. Other than support this is an adaptive mechanism to provide protection against predators. In vertebrates, it is considered as the dermal bone that developed via membranous ossification. Fishes retained their exoskeleton in the form of their scales. However, in some organisms terrestrial evolution allows the loss of exoskeleton and formed a more mobile endoskeleton,

irina1246 [14]
46 Cromosomas

Las células del ser humano tienen 23 pares de cromosomas, 22 pares de autosomas y un par de cromosomas sexuales. Por tanto, cada individuo tiene 46 cromosomas en sus células. Por lo tanto, el número de cromosomas presentes en una célula nerviosa de un ser humano es de 46 cromosomas.
