Answer:

Translocation

Explanation:

Changes in chromosome include deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations.

  • Deletion occurs when an end of a chromosome breaks off.
  • Duplication is the presence of a chromosome segment more than once in the same chromosome.
  • Translocation is when a fragment of chromosomal breakage join a nonhomologous chromosome.
  • Reciprocal translocation is a chromosome abnormality caused by exchange of parts between non-homologous chromosomes.
  • Robertsonian translocation occurs when two non-homologous chromosomes get attached, meaning that given two healthy pairs of chromosomes, one of each pair "sticks" together.

skad [1K]

Answer:

a. is converted to NAD+ by an enzyme called dehydrogenase

Explanation:

The electron transport chain of cellular respiration is the final step that oxidized NADH and FADH2. These reducing powers are formed during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. Complex I of the electron transport chain present in the inner mitochondria membrane is NADH dehydrogenase. This protein complex accepts electrons from NADH and oxidizes it into NAD+. NADH dehydrogenase couples oxidation of NADH with the pumping of proton towards the intermembrane space.
