In a cell protein synthesis is the primary function of ribosomes
Answer:
- Hydrogen ion concentration is lower in the mitochondrial matrix than in the intermembrane space.
- Oxidative phosphorylation relies on the hydrogen ion concentration gradient generated and maintained by the electron transport chain.
- Hydrogen ions enter the mitochondrial matrix via facilitated diffusion.
Explanation:
Oxidative phosphorylation is a metabolic pathway by which Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) molecules are produced through the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH2 to molecular oxygen (O2). The hydrogen (H+) ions are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space, and this movement of protons generates an electrochemical gradient across the mitochondrial membrane which is used by the ATP synthase to produce ATP. This gradient is generated by the movement of electrons through a series of electron carriers (e.g., cytochrome c and ubiquinone) that are embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The movement of these H+ ions across the semipermeable mitochondrial membrane moving down their electrochemical gradient is named chemiosmosis and is an example of facilitated diffusion.
Hey there!
The answer is
Newtons first law of inertia. "An object with no net forces acting on it which is initially at rest will remain at rest. If it is moving, it will continue to move in a straight line with constant velocity"
Hope i helped!
Please mark me brainliest!!!!!
Answer:
The visible DNA fingerprint can help extract DNA which, after analysis, can accurately identify the suspect or perpetrator of the crime.
Explanation:
DNA Fingerprinting:
- DNA fingerprinting is a molecular analysis tool that can help identify a suspect in a crime through DNA extracted from fingerprints.
- Specific patterns in the DNA, known as polymorphisms, can be identified through DNA fingerprinting.
- The DNA fingerprinting process involves:
- Extraction and purification of the DNA from the fingerprint.
- PCR amplification to obtain high yield.
- Fragmentation of the DNA by use of restriction enzymes.
- Gel electrophoresis analysis of the fragmented DNA.
- Analysis of gel to compare the size of the bands.
By definition: Facilitated diffusion<span> is the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a cell's membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins.~Google
An example, the only I can really think of:
Polar and large molecules normally can't cross the lipid bi layer using simple diffusion, it usually has to be </span>Facilitated diffusion
