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 contains all the oxygen and carbon dioxide surrounding earth
Alchen [17]

Answer: Atmosphere

Explanation:

Atmosphere is the part of the earth, known as the gaseous part, since it contains gases such as nitrogen (about 78%), oxygen (about 21%), Carbondioxide (about 0.03%), and rare gases to make the rest.

Thus, atmosphere contains the most whole of oxygen and carbon dioxide

How did the temperature relate to the “recommended temperature limit” (solid horizontal red line)?
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The “recommended temperature limit” indicates limit of the temperature that is good for our world and above this limit causes adverse affect.

Explanation:

The temperature related to the “recommended temperature limit” means that in the graph there is a limit of temperature for our world's environment. if the temperature is between this limit, there is less or no adverse effect on our environment while on the hand, if the temperature exceeds from this limit, then it adversely affected our world because the concentration of carbondioxide gas in the atmosphere increases due to this increase temperature..
