Answer:

B) FADH2 -- FMN of Complex I -- Fe-S of Complex II -- Q -- Fe-S of Complex III -- Cyt c -- Cyt a of Complex IV -- O2

Explanation:

FADH2 and NADH give their high energy electrons to the terminal electron acceptor molecular oxygen via an electron transport chain. As the electrons move through electron carriers of the electron transport chain, they lose their free energy. Part of the free energy of the electrons is used to pump the protons from the matrix into the intermembrane space. Therefore, part of the energy of electrons is temporarily stored in the form of a proton concentration gradient.

NADH gives its electrons to FMN of complex I while FADH2 gives its electrons to the Fe-S center of complex II. Both the complexes are oxidized by coenzyme (Q) which in turn reduces Fe-S centers of complex III. Cyt c of complex IV obtains electrons from complex III and passes them to CuA center, to heme "a" to heme "a3-CuB center" and finally to the molecular oxygen.

So, the compounds arranged with respect to the energy content of electrons in descending order are as follows: FADH2 -- FMN of Complex I -- Fe-S of Complex II -- Q -- Fe-S of Complex III -- Cyt c -- Cyt a of Complex IV -- O2.

What causes surface ocean currents to be deflected?
Nookie1986 [14]

Ok, so, to break it down for y'all:

A force, called The Coriolis Effect, causes the direction of winds and ocean currents to be

deflected!

In the Northern Hemisphere, wind and currents are deflected toward the right, while the Southern Hemisphere is deflected toward the left.

Which label belongs in the area marked Y?
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Among Sponges and Cnidarians, the difference among given facts is in "Have a network of nerve cells".

Explanation:

Both Sponges and Cnidarians have pores, they reproduce by buddings, and they live in freshwater. The major difference in both organisms is that: cnidarians have very simple nervous system made of sensory nerves that are arranged in the form of neural network. On the other hand, sponges are simple multicellular organisms without any neural network at all. In fact, they are the only multicellular organisms (animals) without a nervous system.

A student is investigating the affect of different salts on melting points. Four patches of ice of equal size are roped off and
Rasek [7]
The control variable in any experiment is designed in order to apply the same steps of the experiment but with no change happens in the observations.

In this experiment, the student tries to know the effect of solubility of different water-soluble salts (NaCl, CaCl2 and KCO3) on the melting point of the solution. All these salts dissolve in water and give some effect on the melting point except for the sand as the sand doesn't dissolve in water.
