Answer: a. the ph of the matrix increases

Explanation:

NADH and FADH2 molecules resulting from the Krebs cycle (by reducing respectively NAD + and Electron and proton carriers (e-  and H +), are oxidized in the final reactions of cellular respiration, and the electrons and protons are captured by oxygen, the final acceptor. The flow of electrons along the respiratory chain causes the active transport of protons along the chain through the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Protons return to the mitochondrial matrix by diffusion - chemiosmosis - and at the same time, ADP undergoes oxidative phosphorylation forming ATP. Because of this movement of protons inside the matrix, the ph of the matrix increases.

B) The water molecules remain together. The salt molecules break apart.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the salt is being place upon the water, the sodium in salt becomes attracted to the water molecules. Both H20(water) & NaCI (salt) start to become drawn, during this reaction. This causes water to remain together, while the salt is broken apart and dissolves. Hope this helps!
