Rotenone is a poison commonly added to insecticides. Rotenone binds tightly with one of the electron carrier molecules in the el

ectron transport chain, preventing electrons from passing to the next carrier molecle. Insects exposed to rotenone will die because
A) they will no longer be able to perform anerobic respiration.
B) high levels of fermentation products will build up in their bodies.
C) they will no longer be able to produce adequate amounts of ATP.
D) they will no longer be able to absorb water and will become dehydrated.

Answer:

The correct answer is A they will no longer be able to perform aerobic respiration.

Explanation:

Rotenone is an isoflavonid compound which act an inhibitor of electron transport chain in mitochondria.Rotenone generally blocks the transfer of electrons from from NADH CoQ dehydrogenase or complex 1 to ubiquinone.

   As electron transport is blocked the reduced coenzymes such as NADH,FADH2 are unable to be oxidized.

 As a result cells exposed to rotenone will no longer be able to perform aerobic respiration.

Alla [95]

Answer:

ATP production.

Explanation:

The result will be the production of ATP molecules if we place thylakoids in a beaker with a solution that mimics the chloroplast stroma in direct sunlight. The thylakoids are able to formed ATP in the dark because H+ gradient is required for ATP synthesis. The scientists find out that the light reactions were not necessary to establish the H+ gradient required for ATP synthesis by ATP synthase.

Answer:

OH LOL I DID THIS IN 7TH GRADE

Explanation:

so if i remember when the trees where white the pepper moths that where white survived more often that the black ones, then when the industrial war came the trees where covered in ash, so the white moths survived

MY SENTENCE

It shows how a change in an environment can effect a species natural selection, for example the white moths survived more than the black moths so the reproduced while the black moths where eaten by predator's, then when the environment changed and favored the black moths they survived and reproduced while the white moth got picked off by predators.

Hope this helped mate :>

Which factors should scientists measure to learn how each<br> population changed over time?
Doss [256]

Answer:

The statistical study of populations and how they change over time is called demography. Two important measures of a population are population size, the number of individuals, and population density, the number of individuals per unit area or volume.
