Answer:

The correct answer is c) They are used to form ATP by chemiosmosis

Explanation:

In cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized into carbon dioxide and water and  converts into NADH a FADH₂ during glycolysis and Kreb cycle. Then these reduced molecules are used to provide the source of electrons during chemiosmosis.

This transfer of electron to electron transport chain brings the conformation change in proteins that helps in transport of H⁺ions across the inner membrane of mitochondria. This transport of ions increase the proton gradient in the membrane.

So to equalize the proton gradient H⁺ moves towards the matrix through ATPase which allows the formation of ATP from ADP. Therefore the right answer is c) They are used to form ATP by chemiosmosis.

Answer:

The World Health Organization defines health as "the state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." In either sense, health is a state of action that includes prevention, care, and individual responsibility to achieve optimal health.

Sound waves travel through gas liquid and solids A) True B) False
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

  • Sound is a form of Energy that produces a sensation of hearing in our ears.
  • Sound is produced as a result of vibration produced in a body.
  • Sound energy is transmitted from one place o other place by wave motion.
  • When a body vibrates, the particles of medium surrounding it starts vibrating about their mean position.
  • During vibration, they collide with the surrounding particle and transfer some energy to them.
  • They then start vibrating faster and transferring  energy to the next surrounding particle. This process continues till the vibration reaches a person ear.
  • Thus, particles are an important factor in propagation of sound.
  • Sound cannot travel in vacuum.
  • It requires a medium to travel from one point to another.
  • A sound can travel in all medium, solids, liquids and gases as all of these have particles.
  • The speed of sound is highest in solids and lowest in gases as the inter molecular space is largest in gases and smallest  in solids.

Andre45 [30]

The use of a thermophilic DNA polymerase such as Taq polymerase prevents the denaturation of the enzyme during the heating that is important to separate the newly synthesized strand. So using this enzyme simplifies the PCR technique and increases its efficiency.

Taq DNA polymerase is highly efficient, when it reaches the optimum temperature, it becomes fully functional. It also has a half-life of over two hours (at 92°C), high amplification capacity, and it can add upto 150 nucleotides per second.  It is "special" enzyme because it comes from the bacterium Thermus aquaticus, which lives in hot springs. It is therefore thermostable even at high temperatures, while other polymerases (e.g. E. coli) are not.
