What is true about the function of the electron transport system (ETS)?

Biology
2 answers:
FrozenT [24]3 years ago

The correct answer is the last option.

The first option does not make sense as the electron transport chain makes the most ATP from the whole ATP synthesis cycle including glycolysis and the Kreb's Cycle. It also does not make NADH, but instead splits NADH into NAD- and H+. The H+ are used later to make ATP.

The second option also does not make sense as a "lysosome" is a digestive "pocket" in the cell, used for taking in and digesting food for the cell.

The third option also does not make sense as it does not produce NADH and is not during glycolysis. The electron transfer chain breaks up NADH and FADH2 and is the last step in the ATP synthesis process, after glycolysis and Kreb's Cycle.

The last option is correct. The electron transfer chain has the ability to make 34 molecules of ATP (in theory; so in real-life this does not always happen). The electron transfer chain does break down several compounds derived from glucose in a series of chemical reactions that do occur in the cristae of the mitochondrion.

Answer:

It has the ability to generate 34 molecules of ATP for every molecule of glucose that is broken down as a result of a series of chemical reactions that occur in the cristae of the mitochondrion.

Why does dna copy itself during the cell cycle?
natima [27]
Well the whole point of the cell cycle is to make more cells so it could be C, but it also wants the daughter cell to have the same AMOUNT of DNA, not the exact type (in meiosis) so B may be right, but most likely it is C
