Answer:

Five basic element of reflex arc are receptor, sensory neuron, integration center, effector and motor neuron.

Explanation:

Reflex arc may be defined as the neural pathway of reflex action. Reflex may be defined as a response against a particular stimulus that returns the body to homeostasis.

Five basic elements of reflex arc are as follows:

Receptor: Receptor is present at the end of a sensory neuron and they respond against a stimuli.

Sensory neuron: The neuron carries nerve impulse from the receptor to the brain or spinal cord.

Integration center: This center consists of more than one synapse in brain or spinal cord.

Motor neuron: This neuron conducts nerve impulse from the central nervous system to the effector organ.

Effector: Effector respond against a nerve impulse and may contract or secrete a product depending upon the effect.

Which of the following statements about oxidative phosphorylation by ATP synthase is FALSE? A) The electrochemical gradient acro

Alina [70]

Answer

D)A proton gradient alone without a corresponding energy input is not sufficient to drive the synthesis of ATP

Explanation:

Oxidative phosphorylation reffers to metabolic pathway whereby enzyme is used by the cell to achieve nutrient oxidation, so that chemical energy of molecular oxygen is released as a result of this, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is manufactured. oxidative phosphorylation is seen in all organisms that are aerobic in nature and it occur in the mitochondria of all eukaryotic organisms. There is electron transfer during oxidative phosphorylation, the electrons moves from the donor to the receptor and this is known as redox reaction, as a result of this energy is released, and this energy is used for formation of ATP.

Therefore,among all the options, A proton gradient alone without a corresponding energy input is not sufficient to drive the synthesis of ATP is the false statement.
