What are the functions of the high-energy electrons in the electron transport chain?

Biology
1 answer:
k0ka [10]4 years ago

Answer:

Transporting Electrons

As the high-energy electrons are transported along the chains, some of their energy is captured. This energy is used to pump hydrogen ions (from NADH and FADH2) across the inner membrane, from the matrix into the intermembrane space. Electron transport in a mitochondrion is shown in Figure below.

Select the correct partial path below. this path is part of the complete blood flow pathway. you should be able to trace flow st
olasank [31]

The right answer is: aorta to smaller systemic arteries to systemic capillaries to systemic veins to right atrium through the tricuspid valve.

The blood pathway is divided into two circuits, both beginning and ending in the heart.

- Systemic circulation (or general circulation, or "circulation")

It begins in the left ventricle, which through an artery distributes oxygenated blood to organs. Then the blood returns to the right heart (right atrium) through the cellar veins.

Each organ has an afferent vessel, supplying blood, and an efferent vessel carrying non-oxygenated blood.

- The pulmonary circulation (or "small circulation")

It begins in the right ventricle, from where the pulmonary artery sends blood without hematosis to a single organ, the lung. The blood is then oxygenated and returns to the left heart (left atrium) by the pulmonary veins.

Which process in eukaryotic cells will proceed normally whether oxygen (o2) is present or absent?
VLD [36.1K]
The correct answer is glycolysis. 

Glycolysis is an anaerobic process of splitting a molecule of glucose (6 carbons) to 2 molecules of pyruvate (3 carbons each). Glycolysis does not require the presence of oxygen and will still produce energy, albeit lower than aerobic metabolism. In the absence of oxygen, fermentation can occur wherein pyruvate is further converted into lactate.

How does electrocution cause rigid paralysis?
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Muscles are stimulated by electricity. The effect depends on the intensity of the current and the type of muscle it travels through.

The victim may be unable to let go of the source of the current, making the duration of the contact longer and increasing the severity of the shock.

When a current above 10 mA travels through extensor muscles, it causes a violent spasm. If the muscles affected are the hip extensors that lengthen the limbs away from the body, the victim may be propelled, sometimes many metres away!

Muscles, ligaments and tendons may tear as a result of the sudden contraction caused by an electric shock. Tissue can also be burned if the shock is lasting or the current is high.planation:
