Answer:
Hydrogen and electrons
Explanation:
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) serve as reducing power during energy transfers. One NAD+ accepts one hydrogen ions and two electrons and becomes reduced into NADH. Likewise, FAD accepts two hydrogen ions and two electrons and is reduced into FADH2. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 into NAD+ and FAD respectively releases both hydrogen ions and electrons.
For example, some of the energy of glucose released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle is temporarily stored in the form of NADH and FADH2. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 via electron transfer chain of mitochondria releases both electrons and hydrogen ions (protons). The protons are pumped across the inner mitochondrial membrane to generate the proton concentration gradient.
Orbital period is the <span> time taken for a given object to make one complete </span>orbit around another object. Mercury orbits the Sun in 88 days. Therefore, Mercury's orbital period is calculated by (88/365.25) or .241 Earth years. Hope this answers the question.
Answer: D. Galaxies show a red shift, indicating they are moving away from each other.
Explanation:
Galaxies seem to show a red shift which indicates that the galaxies are moving away from each other. This provides evidence for the Big Bang theory because the theory posits galaxies will keep moving away from each other.
This is because when an explosion happens, matter moves away from the point where the explosion happened. If the Big Bang happened therefore, galaxies will move away from the source which is why galaxies are moving away from each other.
<em>The continental crust is up to 70 km thick.</em>
<u>Explanation</u>:
Upto 40% of the earth is made up of continental crust. <em>Sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic ricks </em>make up the continental crust. It makes up the upper layer of <em>continents and shallow seabed</em> areas near the shores.
<em>Continental crust</em> is thicker than oceanic crust with a thickness ranging from <em>25 km to 70km continental crust</em> makes up 70% of earth’s volume and is usually located above sea level with a few exceptions like the <em>Zealand continental crust</em> region which is largely under water.
