Answer:
Explanation:
NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers of the electron transport chain. NADH gives up its electrons starting from Complex I, which has a higher energy level compared to other complexes. Energy is given off to pump protons across the membrane by the time electrons are transferred to ComplexIII. More electrons are pumped across the membrane as electrons move to Complex IV. Because NADH commenced giving up its electrons from Complex I (higher energy level complex), more protons are pumped across the membrane gradient, which enables ATP synthase with more power to produce 3ATP molecules per NADH molecule.
On the other hand, 2 molecules of ATP are generated by FADH2 because it starts by giving up its electrons to ComplexII. It missed a chance to pump protons across the membrane when it passed Complex I. By the time the electrons reach Complex IV, less protons have been pumped. The lesser the protons to power ATP synthase, the lesser the ATP molecules produced.
Answer:
Linings of hollow organs
Explanation:
Smooth muscle cells are usually found in the lining of hollow organs such as all arteries and veins, wall of stomach, uterus, urinary bladder, digestive system etc. The cells of these linings are spindle shaped and consist of a nucleus at the center which lacks striations.
They work as a housekeeper and are under involuntary control except the heart. They lack striation because of irregular arraying of actin and myosin filament along the length of the cell.
Answer: The most important abiotic factors for plants are light, carbon dioxide, water, temperature, nutrients, and salinity.
Answer:
Nuclear lamins will no longer disassemble during mitosis
Explanation:
The nuclear lamina is a fibrillar network inside the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, between the inner nuclear membrane and the peripheral chromatin. Nuclear lamins (also called simply lamin proteins) are intermediate filament-type proteins and represent the major building blocks of the nuclear lamina. During mitosis, the nuclear lamina is disassembled by hyperphosphorylation of nuclear lamins and lamina-associated proteins. The protein responsible for phosphorylating nuclear lamins is p34cdc2, a protein kinase that has a key role in controlling cell cycle progression. In consequence, a mutant form of the nuclear lamin proteins that cannot be phosphorylated will no longer be able to disassemble during mitosis.
White blood cells or WBCs are also known as leukocytes and these are the cells of the immune system. They serve as the soldiers inside our body that fight against infectious diseases and foreign invaders. WBCs are classified into different types. Some of them have multi-lobed nuclei, specifically, the neutrophils. It is the most abundant WBC in the body and they defend against bacterial and fungal infection. They have a multi-lobed nucleus, which consists of three to five lobes connected by slender strands. These multi-lobes are used for phagocytosis. Hope this answer helps.
