Answer:

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.

The most common form of color blindness, known as red–green blindness, is an X-linked recessive trait affecting about 8% of the
dangina [55]

Answer:

A) Proportion of females with the trait is less than 8%

B) Proportion of females that would be carriers is greater than 8%

Explanation:

Only the 8% male sufferers can give their diseased X-chromosome for the female XX to be formed. hence, the proportion of the female carriers is most likely greater than 8%

On the other hand, the proportion of female sufferers will be definitely less than 8%, for 92% of the remaining male population are neither carriers nor sufferers; and the 8% male sufferers are strictly needed to give the disease X-chromosome for a female to have the trait XX.

Giardia exists in two forms--cysts and trophozoites. While both are required for the life cycle of Giardia, only the cyst is con
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Because the trophozoites are unable to survive outside a host.

Explanation:

The term infectious is used for a disease or microorganism that can be transmitted from one organism to the other organism through the environment. If we look at the two forms of Giardia, we find that out of the two forms viz. cysts and trophozoites, only the cysts of Giardia have the ability to remain alive in the environment outside the host and thus they are able to be transmitted to the other organisms. On the other hand trophozoites are not able to survive in outside environment so there is no chance of transmission of trophozoites.

Not all enzymes work inside cells in the body
Evgen [1.6K]


Enzymes can be divided into two groups, intracellular and extracellular enzymes.

Enzymes formed and retained in the cell are known as intracellular enzymes. They are found in the cytoplasm, organelles  and the nucleus of the cell. Examples of such enzymes are DNA polymerase, RNA polymerase and ATP synthetase.

Extracellular enzymes are produced in the cell then packed and secreted from the cell.  This kind of enzymes catalyze reactions outside the cell. Most digestive enzymes are extracellular enzymes . Examples of such are amylase, zymase and cellulase
