<h3>What are enzymes?</h3>

Enzymes are biological molecules which catalyze biochemical reactions occurring in living organisms.

Enzymes acts on different substances in the body.

Option A is wrong because protons are not pumped into the matrix of the mitochondria, but rather protons are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix to the inner membrane space.

Option B is correct. The NADH dehydrogenase, cytochrome b-c1, and cytochrome oxidase complexes are all protons pumps and pump protons across the membrane.

Option C. Is correct. The pH inside the mitochondrial matrix is higher than in the innner membrane space.

Option D is correct. The mitochondria use the proton gradient to synthesize ATP by the enzyme ATP synthase.

How can the lymph system reduce the spread of cancer?
Lady bird [3.3K]

The answer is; A

In the lymph vessels,  a few lymphocytes ‘ patrol’ the tissues as they scan for antigens. When they detect an antigen, including surface antigens of rogue cells (cancer cells), the antigen-presenting cells (APCs) present this to the cognate lymphocytes turning them to effector cells (such as effector T-cells). The effector T- cells bind to the cancer cells and induce apoptosis.
