Answer:
See blow
Explanation:
a and b) Metformine inhibits the enzime glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This enzime catalyzes the conversion of glycerol phosphate to dihidrocetone phosphate. This decreases the concentration of NAD on the cytosol, and the realation NADH/NAD increases in this comparment, and decreases on the mitochondria, which restricts the conversion of lactate to pyruvate, preventing the use of the substracts to the gluconeogenesis.
Answer:
This blank space in this question is COMPETE
Explanation:
This question is describing natural selection, which is the theory proposed by Charles Darwin where he stated that organisms that are better suited for an environment will survive and reproduce better than others.
In the environment, resources such as food, water, mate etc are limited, hence, organisms must COMPETE for the available ones. In this case, organisms that are better adapted will triumph over others. Therefore, it is certain that not all organism that are born can be supported by the environment because organisms COMPETE for resources.
Answer:
Light takes 499.0 seconds to travel from sun to earth.

Answer:
a. The polarity of membrane phospholipids.
Explanation:
Phospholipids are the amphipathic lipids with polar heads and non-polar tails. The non-polar tails of two lipid layers form the core of the membrane while their heads are oriented towards both of the faces of the membrane. The polarity of the phospholipids does not affect the transport of substances. If a membrane has more of the saturated phospholipid tails in its core, the tight packing of the tails makes the membrane less permeable for large and polar substances.
On the other hand, a membrane with a greater proportion of unsaturated hydrocarbon tails in its core is more permeable. Cholesterol is also an amphipathic sterol and moderates the fluidity of membrane and thereby affects its permeability. A more fluid membrane is more permeable than a more solid membrane. Temperature affects the membrane polarity by affecting the membrane fluidity.
Answer:
The most appropriate answer would be C.electron carriers such as NADP⁺.
High energy electrons are transported through electron transport chain embedded in a thylakoid membrane in order to produce energy rich compounds such as ATP and NADPH.
It is also called as light dependent reaction of photosynthesis. It includes four major protein complexes: photosystem II, photosystem I, cytochrome b6f complex, and ATP synthase.
The electron first gets excited from chlorophyll a present in the reaction center (P₆₈₀ and P₇₀₀) of two photosystems (PS II and PS I) . The electron in PS II is replenished by photolysis of water.
Different electron carriers (such as plastoquinone, plastocyanin, pheophytin, chlorophyll A₀ etc) are present which help in transferring this high energy electron from one complex to another. NADP⁺ is the final acceptor of the electron and gets reduced to NADPH.
NADPH and ATP are then used in dark reaction in order to fix carbon into sugars.
