Answer:

chloroplasts and mitochondria.

Explanation:

Chloroplasts and mitochondria are the organelles capable of ATP production by photophosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation respectively. Chloroplasts are the site for photosynthesis. The light reactions of photosynthesis include splitting of the water molecule in presence of sunlight and transfer of electrons from PS-II to PS-I via electron carrier. During electron transport, a proton gradient is created which in turn drives ATP synthesis.  

Mitochondria are the site for aerobic stages of cellular respiration. Glycolysis and Kreb's cycle, the first and second stages of cellular respiration produce NADH and FADH2 during the redox reactions. These reducing powers are oxidized by giving their electrons to the terminal electron acceptor, the oxygen molecule.

Electrons from the reducing powers are carried to oxygen molecules via a series of electron carrier proteins embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. During electron transport, an electrochemical gradient is created which in turn drives the ATP synthesis.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: lets the air get inside the lungs.

Explanation:

The process of ventilation, or breathing, consists of two parts: <u>inhaling and exhaling.</u>

Inhaling is the name of the process that is responsible for the air entering the body by the respiratory tract. Exhaling is the opposite, it lets the air out. Both are equally important since they allow the gas exchange necessary for the oxygenation of the blood.

When inhaling, the diaphragm and the external intercostal muscles contract. This pulls the ribcage upwards and outwards, which increases lung volume while decreasing the air pressure inside.
