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.

The ______ is a fossa formed by the ilium, ischium and pubis which with the femoral head forms the _______ joint.
Setler [38]

The acetabulum is a fossa formed by the ilium, ischium and pubis which with the femoral head forms the coxal joint.

The acetabulum is made up of the three bones that make up the coxal bone (hip bone).

The ischium, which offers the lower and side limits to the acetabulum, makes up somewhat more than two-fifths of the structure.

Less than two-fifths of the acetabulum's structure is provided by the ilium, which also serves as the top limit of the joint.

The pubis, which is close to the midline, forms the remainder.

The acetabulofemoral joint (art. coxae), also known as the coxal joint, is the joint between the head of the femur and the acetabulum of the pelvis.

Its main job is to support the weight of the body in both static (such as while standing) and dynamic (such as when walking or running) postures.
