The final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain that functions in aerobic oxidative phosphorylation is

Answer: a. oxygen

Basically what (/the) ETC and oxidative phosphorylation is, is the products of the Krebs cycle being oxidized and oxygen receiving electrons. And when the phosphorylation part of oxidative phosphorylation occurs is when ADP gains its third phosphate group becoming ATP.

Forgive me for this poor response I was trying to be quick and it resulted in this vague and disorganized mess. To properly explain the ETC and oxidative phosphorylation it would be best to start from the beginning and explain all the stages of Aerobic respiration. Then it would be easier to Segway in to this final stage which would definitely take 2-3 descriptive paragraphs to cover.

Approximately 90% of human cancer cells exhibit significant levels of telomerase. Does this mean that telomerase is an oncogene?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

No, telomerase is not an oncogene. It prevents the senescence that would occur due to shortened telomeres, but the cell proliferation might still be mitogen-dependent.

Explanation

telomerase is not responsible for causing  deregulation while oncogenes cause deregulation .

Telomeres length shorten after the cell division which stops them to divide again and cell die.

Telomerase prevents this decline in some kinds of cells, including stem cells, by lengthening telomeres, and the hope was that activating the enzyme could  prevent senescence.
