Three main layers of the earth
1. Core the innermost part
2. Mantle the middle part
3. Crust the outermost part

<span>The special feature of the upper mantle is the asthenosphere. It is located just below the lithosphere and is made up of rock that is fluid and can move. The fluidity of these rocks powered the movement of tectonic plates on the earth's crust.  Circular convection cycles in the hot, fluid upper mantle rock move the plates over the surface of the Earth.</span>

When NADH is the electron donor to the respiratory chain, 2.5 ATP are formed, but when FADH2 is the electron donor, only 1.5 ATP
Fofino [41]

Answer:NADH donates it electron to complex I a higher energy level than other complexes while FADH donates it electron to complex II a lower energy complex.

Explanation:

Both NADH and FADH are shuttle of high energy electrons originally extracted from food into the inner mitochondrial membrane.

NADH donate it electron to a flavoprotein consisting of FMN prosthetic group and an iron-sulphur protein in ETC complex-I. Two electrons and one hydrogen ion are are transferred from NADH to the flavin prosthetic group of the enzyme.

While the electrons from FADH2 enters the ETC (electron transport chain) at the level of co-enzyme Q (complex II). This step does not librate enough energy to act as a proton pump.

So NADH produces 2.5 ATP during the ETC and oxidative phosphorylation because it donates its electron to Complex I, which pump more electrons across the membrane than other complexes.
