Answer: B.CFC

Explanation:

The chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs are the hydrochlorofluorocarbons that are fully or partially halogenated with the chlorine and fluorine as halogen. It is a volatile derivative of methane, propane and ethane.

The fluorides and chlorides reacts with the oxygen present in the ozone layer present in the stratosphere of the atmosphere. This may lead to the disintegration of the ozone layer and results in the formation of a hole. The ozone layer basically function in prevention of incident radiations like UV and infrared coming from the sun. Due to such damage the rays will enter the earth atmosphere and likely to affect the organisms in the biosphere. These radiations are capable of causing instead mutations which may lead to skin cancer.

Which metabolic pathway requires a proton gradient?
Ad libitum [116K]

Oxidative phosphorylation requires a proton gradient.

  • Cells use enzymes to oxidize foods in the metabolic pathway known as oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport-linked phosphorylation, or terminal oxidation, which releases chemical energy to create adenosine triphosphate.
  • This happens inside mitochondria in eukaryotes. The majority of the energy required for biosynthesis, maintaining a healthy ion balance, and mechanical effort is provided by oxidative phosphorylation, which is the principal source of ATP in higher animals.
  • A succession of proteins and electron carriers in the mitochondrial membrane, as well as the electron transport chain, are all involved in the process of oxidative phosphorylation.
