The "medium" is the substance or material that carries a mechanical wave. One of the most important things to remember about waves is that they transport energy, not matter. This makes them different from other phenomenon in physics.

For simple definitions, visit the following website:

A forest fire in Florida clears thousands of acres of trees. What are the consequences for the animal populations in the surroun
sammy [17]

The forest fire released CO2 (Carbon dioxide)which is essential for plants but CO (Carbon monoxide)is harmful to many organism including humans.But the forest fire isn't always bad. Sometimes it is a opportunity for predator to hunt animals while they are fleeing for life. Small animals can hide under rock or burned wood to escape fire. Snakes bury themselves in soil. Some of them isn't so lucky, koalas will climb up to the treetops then stick there.

In the electron transport system
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A. NADH and FADH2 both donate electrons at the same location.

Explanation:

In the respiratory chain, four large protein complexes inserted into the mitochondrial inner membrane transport NADH and FADH₂ electrons (formed in glycolysis and the Krebs cycle) to oxygen gas, reducing them to NAD⁺ and FAD, respectively.

These electrons have great affinity for oxygen gas and, when combined with it, reduce it to water molecules at the end of the reaction.

Oxygen gas effectively participates in cellular respiration at this stage, so its absence would imply interruption of the process.

NADH and FADH₂ electrons, when attracted to oxygen, travel a path through protein complexes, releasing energy in this process.

The energy released by the NADH and FADH₂ electrons in the respiratory chain in theory yields <u>34</u> <u>ATP</u>, however, under normal conditions an average of 26 ATP molecules is formed.

If we consider that these 26 molecules are added to the two ATP formed in glycolysis and two ATP formed in the Krebs cycle, it can be said that cellular respiration reaches a maximum yield of 30 ATP per glucose molecule, although theoretically this number was 38 ATP per glucose molecule.
