To reduce one molecule of O2 it takes 4 electrons.

Electron transfer is the last process of aerobic respiration that occurs in the inner membrane of mitochondria. In electron transport, the process of making ATP occurs which will later be used by cells to carry out activities in the body. The material for making ATP comes from NADH and FADH2 which are produced in glycolysis, oxidative decarboxylation, and the Krebs cycle. O2 acts as the final electron acceptor which will later form H2O which will be removed from the cell.

In electron transport, NADH and FADH are utilized in a series of oxidation-reduction reactions until finally used to reduce O2 to H2O. This redox reaction involving various protein complexes in the mitochondrial inner membrane is referred to as oxidative phosphorylation. The energy released in this redox process is converted into a high-energy molecule, namely ATP. To reduce one molecule of O2 it takes 4 electrons.

What nursing action is the priority for a client in the second stage of labor?
Margarita [4]
Assessing the perineum for bulging is a nursing priority to a client at the second labor stage. A bulging perineum is caused by the presence of the fetal head against the perineal area and usually signifies imminent birth. Pain medication is not administered this close to the birth instead it crosses the placenta barrier and can cause respiratory distress in the newborn. During this second stage of labor the client is encouraged to push, not pant, with each contraction.

Why food must be digested before entering your cells?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Digestion is important for breaking down food into nutrients, which the body uses for energy, growth, and cell repair. Food and drink must be changed into smaller molecules of nutrients before the blood absorbs them and carries them to cells throughout the body.     Protein must be broken down into amino acids.     Starches break down into simple sugars.     Fats break down into into fatty acids and glycerol.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

There are lots of transitional organisms in the fossil record though it does take very specific and precise conditions for a fossil to be preserved, a deer that dies in a field will not end up in the fossil record so we are looking at a small sampling of the evidence (and a good thing too or there wouldn't be anywhere to walk with all the bones laying around)
