Answer: C. Ii & III are correct

II. reduced intracellular ATP.

III. apoptosis or necrosis.

Explanation:

Cytochrome c oxidase controls the last step of food oxidation. Cytochrome c oxidase is an enzyme responsible for electron transfer in the electron transport chain (ETC), it inhibit in slowing down or stopping the ETC.

Consequently, ATP production would be gradually reduced, as the ETC is responsible for the majority of ATP production. This shows option II is correct.

The question starts by stating that cyanide is highly toxic, so this match up with the fact that a large dose would also cause cell death (apoptosis or necrosis). Therefore, option III is also accurate.

Option I: Inhibiting the ETC is consequential as it reduces oxygen demand because electrons would not flow to oxygen, the final electron acceptor.

Well when you perform this action you are using some percentage of the sunlight energy as you obtained it from a food that either came from a plant source or an animal source. Also plants are able to make their own food using sunlight i.e

Plants give energy to animals and animlas give energy to humans
or
Plants give energy to humans.

<span>Well this isn't actually a question but to market to a company like this you first have to impress a small number of people in a single chain of command. Your products don't have to be marketed to a company as a whole or to a single rung of the food chain but to each successive member in a hierarchy in the company. Firstly to the employee, then to their management then to the ones who actually making the decision to buy.</span>

As liquid water freezes, the molecules arrange themselves in a way that takes up more space than liquid water. What would most l
pickupchik [31]
The appropriate answer is A. the density of ice would be greater than the density of liquid water and so ice would not float. Density can be defined as mass per unit volume. Any substance whose mass is great and occupies a relatively small volume is going to be dense.

Water expands by nine to ten percent when it freezes and this expansion increases the space occupied or the volume and so the density of ice is less than water.
