Answer:

The left and the right ventricles are the two chambers that are present towards the base of the heart and receive oxygenated and deoxygenated blood from left atrium and right atrium respectively.

The chamber/ cavity of left ventricle is more elongated and conical shaped as compared to the right ventricle.

In a transverse section, its cavity is presented as an oval structure or somewhat with circular outline. It extends from left atrioventricular valve ( bicuspid valve, which is located in the left atrium) to the heart apex.

The right ventricle is of triangular shape and extends from the right atrioventricular valve ( also known as tricuspid valve, which is located in the right atrium) to the heart apex.

The cavity of right ventricle is larger I believe. This is due for the fact that the left ventricle is thicker in muscle so may have a smaller cavity. I’ve also performed dissections lol.

During cellular respiration the largest amount of ATP is generated in
Degger [83]
The electron transport chain of the cellular respiration process produces maximum ATP.

There are three parts of cellular respiration:

Glycolysis, which produces 2 ATP.
Krebs cycle, which does not produce any ATP. It produces only the raw materials for ATP production.
Oxidative phosphorylation, which involves the electron transport chain that produces maximum ATP. It takes one NADH molecule via Channel 1 to produce 2.5 ATP and one FADH2 molecule via channel 2 to produce 1.5 ATP, for a total of 34 ATP.

Which of the following best describes an aspect of a membrane's molecular structure that causes it to be selectively permeable?
atroni [7]

Answer:

<u>d. Transport proteins within the membrane serve as a tunnel for molecules to enter the cell. </u>

<u />

Explanation:

Solutes are typically moved across the cell through either passive or active transport. The cells, surrounded by a bilipid layer or plasma membrane is amphiphlic- its polar, hydrophilic lipid heads face outwards, while their non-polar hydrophobic lipid tails face inwards towards each other.

While lipid-soluble molecules move across the layer easily, it is also difficult for charged and also large molecules to move across its surface, into the cell. Transmembrane channels, <u>embedded within the membrane</u>, help to maintain selective permeability as transport proteins, pores and gated channels. Simple diffusion happens as a method of passive transport in cells through plasma membranes.

The solutes travel through the plasma membrane in the process of diffusion from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration; this occurs without the use of energy. <u>Molecules moving against their concentration require active transport mechanism to cross the membrane</u>.
