Which of the following is/are common to chemiosmosis and the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis? electron transport onl
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Both electron transport and a proton gradient

Explanation:

The process of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and electron transport chain in photosynthesis undergo chemiosmosis to produce ATP molecules.

Chemiosmosis is a process where the energy utilized by the movement of proton and electrons produces ATP molecules.

Both the processes involve the movement of electrons through electron carriers where the reduced energy is utilized to drive the flow of protons through the plasma membrane. This creates a proton gradient across the plasma membrane which rotates the ATP synthase and converts the ADP molecules into ATP molecules.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

Which of the following statements is TRUE?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: B (GTP serves as the energy input for AMP synthesis from IMP)

Explanation:

In the de novo synthesis of purine nucleotide, IMP represents a branch point for purine biosynthesis. IMP can be converted to either AMP or GMP.

The formation of AMP from IMP requires GTP; similarly formation of GMP requires ATP. The conversion of IMP to either AMP or GMP is highly regulated – AMP and GMP inhibits their own formation by feedback inhibition of adenlyosuccinate synthetase and IMP dehydrogenase.

A science club has 16 members. How many ways can a president, a vice president, and a treasurer be selected from the members?
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The answer would be D. 3,360

Explanation:

The solution is found by multiplying 16 times 15 times 14. The club has 16 members and after one role (president) is filled, there are 15 left to fill the next (vice). The same goes for the next role (treasurer). So 16 is multiplied with 15, then 14. This is more of a math question that biology btw.
