Koch's postulates are used to establish the infectious agent that causes a particular infectious disease. In 1937, Thomas Rivers

modified Koch's postulates so that they could be applied to viral pathogens.
Which of Koch's postulates was modified by Rivers?

A. The pathogen must be present in every case of the disease.

B. The pathogen must be grown in pure culture.

C. The pathogen must cause the same disease when introduced into experimental animal hosts.

D. The pathogen must be recovered from the diseased experimental lab animals.

Answer:

B. The pathogen must be grown in pure culture.

Explanation:

Virus, and also some bacteria can not be cultured in "lifeless media". In the case of bacteria, we refer to the obligate intracellular ones, and all virus. Thus, this postulate can not be fulfilled in all cases. Virus can be propagated on tissue cultures, but certainly this was not considered by Koch. Moreover, these methods often result in spontaneous genetic alterations, which leads to adaptation and even attenuation in animal models of disease, so, the cultured virus perhaps does not induce the same disease when introduced to another specimen.

When NADH is the electron donor to the respiratory chain, 2.5 ATP are formed, but when FADH2 is the electron donor, only 1.5 ATP
Fofino [41]

Answer:NADH donates it electron to complex I a higher energy level than other complexes while FADH donates it electron to complex II a lower energy complex.

Explanation:

Both NADH and FADH are shuttle of high energy electrons originally extracted from food into the inner mitochondrial membrane.

NADH donate it electron to a flavoprotein consisting of FMN prosthetic group and an iron-sulphur protein in ETC complex-I. Two electrons and one hydrogen ion are are transferred from NADH to the flavin prosthetic group of the enzyme.

While the electrons from FADH2 enters the ETC (electron transport chain) at the level of co-enzyme Q (complex II). This step does not librate enough energy to act as a proton pump.

So NADH produces 2.5 ATP during the ETC and oxidative phosphorylation because it donates its electron to Complex I, which pump more electrons across the membrane than other complexes.
