Answer: The correct answer is -

B) NADH and FADH2.

NADH and FADH2 are electron carriers that provide electrons, which move across four protein complex (Complex I to complex IV) in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

These are high energy electrons and ultimately help in the generation of large amount of energy in the form of ATP.

The flow of electrons across protein complex leads to change in shape their shapes, due to which protons are pumped across the inner membrane ( that is from mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space).

As a result, a concentration gradient of Hydrogen ions is formed across the membrane.

By diffusion, the hydrogen ions travel back through a special channel called ATP sythase. This channel utilizes the energy of the flow of the Hydrogen ions to form ATP.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The possible fate of the cell that it may turn cancerous.

Explanation:

The cells present in the body generally work in harmony. However, if a cell attains a mutation, it can make it proliferate in the case when it should not do, and make it thrive in the case when other cells are dying. Due to proliferation, the unusual cell produces more abnormal cells also known as cancerous cells. These cancerous cells become more favorable in comparison to the normal cells due to the phenomenon of natural selection. These cells eventually result in a lethal form of tumors.  

In the normal cells, the destructed gene or the damaged cells get repaired easily, in case if the damage is worse the cell dies. A protein known as p53 helps in repairing damaged cells or kills them if the damage is too severe. But in the case of cancer cells, the p53 protein does not work appropriately as they possess a mutated or changed form of p53 protein. Thus, in the case of cancerous cells, the rate of repair lags behind the rate of mutation, which makes the cancer cells thrive and increase in numbers resulting in further destruction.

The biosphere is made of different kinds of matter. Which substance is an
Sedaia [141]

Salt is the Inorganic matter.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Organic matters are defined as those compounds of carbon expect the carbonates, bicarbonates, cyanides etc. These compounds were primarily thought to be produced only from the living organisms and were unable to be produced in laboratory. But later they were being produced in laboratory too.

Inorganic compounds are all the compounds except the organic ones.

Here, in the question, we see the compounds -

Protein - it's the polymer of amino acids which contain carbon, and isn't carbonates or bicarbonates, cyanides etc.

Carbohydrates and sugars are also similar to proteins which contain carbon and isn't the exceptions. So they are also the organic compounds.

But salt, commonly table salt is sodium chloride which doesn't contain carbon, so is Inorganic.
