What process is described here? A concentration gradient of H + ions is created in the periplasmic space by actively transportin

g the ions across the membrane using the energy liberated when carrier molecules are oxidized. When the H + ions pass through ATPase, enough energy is generated to add phosphate groups onto ADP molecules.

<h3>Oxidative Phosphorylation</h3>

Explanation:

The process by which ATP is generated by utilizing the large amount of energy released during the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH₂ to the O₂  through a series of electron carrier present in the mitochondrial membrane is called oxidative phosphorylation.

The process of electron transfer is accompanied by the pumping of protons across inner membrane of mitochondria, from the  mitochondrial matrix to intermembrane space establishing electrochemical proton gradient.

The ATP synthase complex present in the mitochondrial membrane allows the protons to move down the proton gradient  as a result enough energy is released to add a phosphate group to ADP and form ATP inside the mitochondrial matrix.

Which sensory system(s) have receptors which die after awhile because it/they have direct exposure to the environment?\?
Anika [276]
The OLFACTORY AND THE GUSTATORY SYSTEMS have receptors which die out after sometimes because of direct exposure to the environment.
The olfactory system has to do with the perception of smell while the gustatory system has to do with taste stimuli. For these two basic sense organs, their perception rate is always highest when they are newly exposed to a stimuli, after continuous exposure to the stimuli their receptors die out.

gogolik [260]

• Homologous structures: Both Ostriches have wings similar in form to those of their ancestors, but that do not allow the birds to fly.

Homologous structures are those that have structural similarities but are different in function. For example, if we look at the anatomical structure of a bird’s wing, it is very similar in structure with a human arm. However, over the course of time they have evolved to perform different functions.

• Vestigial structures: The inner ear bones of mammals have evolved from bones that form the jaws of reptiles.  

Vestigiality refers to the process in which some structure lose their function over the course of evolution in some specie but they are functionally normal in other species.  Such a structure is the inner ear bones of mammals which donot perform an important function in mammals but do perform in reptiles.

• DNA sequence data: Both Genes involved in RNA replication are conserved among bacteria and animals, suggesting a common evolutionary origin.

The sequencing of genetic data is an excellent method of finding the evolutionary histories and relatedness of different organisms. This field of sciences is called phylogenetics and the mentioned example is the result of phylogenetics.

• Analogous structures: The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates arose independently, indicating a different evolutionary origin.  

Analogous structures are those that have similar function but they look very different in structure or anatomy. This is because they have been evolved from different ancestors and perform different functions. One example of these structures is mentioned, The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates that look different bur perform same function.
