B. A proton gradient drives the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate via ATP synthase.
Explanation:
Light reaction of photosynthesis includes the splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and electron transfer from PSII to PSI via an electron transport system. During the transfer of electron through cytochrome of the electron transport system, the proton concentration gradient is generated across thylakoids. The proton concentration gradient is harvested to drive ADP phosphorylation by the catalytic site of ATP synthase accompanied by downhill movement protons through its proton channels.
Due to the drought they would need to dig deeper for food. But their tiny beaks could not do that. So over time their beaks grew and adapted to the drought. Therefor the answer is D. They had larger beaks!
The ecological optimum represents the value of the factors within the ecological valence at which the life processes of a species take place best. The upper and lower limits of an ecological valence are its maximum and minimum. Beyond these limits, physiological processes are interrupted and death occurs.
There are six links to the chain of infection, however the reservoir is the correct link to select.
The reservoir includes all the places in the environment where the pathogen or infection lives (this includes people, animals and insects, medical equipment, and soil and water)
