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.

Which of the following best sequences the functions of the digestive system from start to finish?
dolphi86 [110]
The answer is d. Ingestion, digestion, absorption, elimination.

There are 4 phases of the digestive system function:
1. Ingestion - the process of the food entering the mouth. 
2. Digestion - the process of breaking the food into small particles.
3. Absorption - the process of the absorbing small food particles into the blood from the intestines.
4. Elimination - is the process of removing the waste out of the body.

For giving you understanding ; we need Free O2 but Oxygen is also available in H20 right why dont we use it !!

As the early atmosphere was reducing as there was no free oxygen but it was later produced by chemoautotrophic bacteria !! Living thing release O2 in atmosphere thus making it oxidising in nature and then life evolves !!

If you are testing traits for Mendelian inheritance, how do you calculate the EXPECTED values?
Georgia [21]

n a cross between two heterozygous individuals, the offspring would be expected to show a 3 : 1 ratio. For example, in Case 1, three-fourths of the individuals would have red (wild-type) eyes, and one-fourth would have sepia eyes.

If there are 44 offspring, how many are expected to have red eyes?

We expect three-fourths to have red eyes.
<span>34</span> of 44 = 33

If there are 44 offspring, how many are expected to have sepia eyes?
<span>14</span> of 44 = 11

Now you are ready to calculate chi-square.
