The electron transport chain (etc) pump protons out of the mitochondrial matrix and into the space between the membranes because the electrons are passed to oxygen, which combines with protons to form water

<h3>What is mitochondrial matrix ?</h3>

The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, a chain of metabolic events started when pyruvate and fatty acids are converted to acetyl coenzyme A, takes place in the mitochondrial matrix (acetyl-CoA). Membrane-bound permeases move pyruvate and fatty acids from the cytoplasm into mitochondria.

<h3>What is electron transport chain?</h3>

A succession of protein complexes and other molecules form an electron transport chain when they work together to transmit protons across a membrane while also transferring electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox processes. Several proteins are found in the mitochondria's inner membrane.

Q3.13. In our simulation of herbivores feeding in a farm pasture, we treated each species as if it were foraging all by itself.
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

<em>The grasshopper competes with the sheep for food, thereby reducing the available quantity and quality of food for the sheep.</em>

Explanation:

In an ecosystem, many organisms rely on the same food source. The success of a particular species in extracting the food source better than another species that needs that same food source can affect the success of  population of this other species of animal. If the number of grasshopper in this pasture becomes too much, it might lead to the consumption of a large portion of the pasture by the grasshopper, leading to a reduction in the available food for the sheep. If this happens, the population of the sheep might decline in order to balance the increase in the population of the grasshopper.

Materials move within the cell 's cytosol by diffusion, and certain materials move through the plasma membrane by diffusion. ... Diffusion: Diffusion through a permeable membrane moves a substance from an area of high concentration (extracellular fluid, in this case) down its concentration gradient (into the cytoplasm). Water, carbon dioxide, and oxygen are among the few simple molecules that can cross the cell membrane by diffusion (or a type of diffusion known as osmosis ). Diffusion is one principle method of movement of substances within cells, as well as the method for essential small molecules to cross the cell membrane.The cell membrane controls what goes in and out by having protein channels that act like funnels in some cases and pumps in other cases. ... Active transport requires energy, because protein machines actively grab molecules on one side of the membrane and push them through to the other side
