1) <span>The function of the electron transport chain is to pump protons in the mitochondrion inter-membrane, thus building up a proton gradient. This gradient will allow the ATP syntheses</span><span>.</span>

2) Why we need oxygen for the electron transport chain:
 At the end of the electron transport chain is the Oxygen that will accept electrons and picks up protons to form water. If the oxygen molecule is not there the electron transport chain will stop running, and ATP will no longer be produced. Basically, we need the oxygen to produce more ATP.

A 0.59 kg bullfrog is sitting at rest on a level log. how large is the normal force of the log on the bullfrog?
ladessa [460]
<span>The bullfrog is sitting at rest on the log. The force of gravity pulls down on the bullfrog. We can find the weight of the bullfrog due to the force of gravity. weight = mg = (0.59 kg) x (9.80 m/s^2) weight = 5.782 N The bullfrog is pressing down on the log with a force of 5.782 newtons. Newton's third law tells us that the log must be pushing up on the bullfrog with a force of the same magnitude. Therefore, the normal force of the log on the bullfrog is 5.782 N</span>

This technique allowed multiple peoples DNA to be compared to look for
Lady_Fox [76]

DNA sequencing is the technique which allows multiple peoples DNA to be compared to look for similarities and differences in order to solve crime and is denoted as option C.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

This is referred to as the deoxyribonucleic acid and contains the genetic components of organisms and is also located in the nucleus. On the other hand, DNA sequencing refers to the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence.

Each organisms has a unique DNA sequence which is why it is used to identify individuals through the use of bodily fluids such as saliva, blood etc.

It is used to compare the similarities and differences in order to solve crime thereby making it the most appropriate choice.
