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.

3) Farmer Brown grows corn for a living. One day, Farmer Green suggests to Farmer Brown that he should clone his best corn plant
Elden [556K]
The answer is C) Cloning eliminates the ability to sexually reproduce and provide genetic variability.
In the future, there is no variability in the genes in the clones given that they are the exact copies of the "parent" produce. All should be identical without differences and variations. Although Farmer Brown doesn't want this to happen that's is what he is reluctant to listen to Farmer Green's advice.

Which of the following does NOT describe the macronucleus of a paramecium?
Rom4ik [11]
The answer is letter D. The macronucleus is not exchanged during conjugation. <span>It normally contains the working duplicates/copies of genes necessary to support an enormous cell. Macronucleus is formed by a direct division of the polyploid nucleus right after conjugation then followed by series of internal gene replication that is not oftenly occurring in micronucleuse.</span>

Populations adapt to changing environmental conditions as a result of __________. populations adapt to changing environmental co
barxatty [35]
Natural selection is the process that result in the adaptation of an organism to environment by means of selectively reproducing changes in its genotype, or genetic constitution. It is the a key mechanism of evolution. Charles Darwin popularised the term "natural selection" contrasting it with artificial selection, which is intentional, whereas natural selection is not.
To make it simple, let's have a group of beetle composing of green and some are brown as an example. here, there is a variation in traits. Since the environment could not support continuous population growth, not all species can reproduce to their full potential. Green beetles can easily be eaten by other species like birds compared to brown beetles. The surviving brown beetles will then generate brown offsprings because their trait has a genetic basis. Since more brown beetles survive and becomes more common in the population, the process continues until all individuals will eventually be brown. so basically, if you have variation, differential reproduction, and heredity, you will have evolution by natural selection as an outcome.
