Answer:D.the lateral malleolus of the fibula.

Explanation:The ankle is the area/joint where the foot and the leg meet. The ankle consists of three joints which includes

(1) Talocrural joint,

(2) The subtalar joint,

(3) Inferior tibiofibular joint.

The main bones of the ankle region are the talus (in the foot), and the tibia and fibula (in the leg). The malleolus is the bony prominence on each side of the human ankle and the most prominent point of possible injuries or fracture when twisting takes place under great force.

Answer:

Components of the electron transport chain (ordered by electronegativity from least electronegative to most electronegative):  

NADH dehydrogenase >> Coenzyme Q >> Cytochrome b-c1 complex >> Cytochrome c >> Cytochrome oxidase complex > O2

Explanation:

The electron transport chain transfers electrons from donors to acceptors via redox reactions (i.e., where reduction and oxidation occur together), and couples the transfer of electrons with proton transfer (H+ ions) across the membrane. In the electron transport chain, the electrons are transferred from NADH dehydrogenase NADH to oxygen (O2) through a series of transmembrane complexes: NADH-Q oxidoreductase, Q-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and cytochrome c oxidase. In the first place, the reduced form of coenzyme Q (ubiquinone) transports the electrons from the NADH-Q oxidoreductase to the Q-cytochrome c oxidoreductase complex (Cytochrome b-c1 complex). Second, the cytochrome c transports the electrons from this complex (i.e., Cytochrome b-c1 complex) to the Cytochrome oxidase complex, this being the last component in the electron transport chain that is responsible to catalyze the reduction of O2.

8. Are the chromosomes the daughter cells produced by mitosis the same as or different from
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The chromosomes the daughter cells produce through mitosis are the same. In mitosis, a cell duplicates the number of chromosomes in its nucleus to produce two identical daughter cells. So the original cell with 23 pairs (46 total), both daughter cells will have 23 pairs (46 total) each.
