The correct answer is - A. The population of predators could increase.

If in a particular food web a new prey animals are introduced, that will most likely result in the increase of the populations of the predators in that food web. The reason why the populations of the predators would increase is that there will be more pray to hunt, and more food means that the predators can increase in numbers and not suffer from food shortage.

Still, while this the most likely scenario, it has to be taken with a little bit of reserve, as it also depends on what kind of prey animal would be introduced in the food web, and what kind of predators are there in the food web. If lets say a prey animal that is large is introduced, like the buffalo, and the predators in that food web are small to medium sized predators like the genette, caracal, serval, honey badger, than there will be no increase in the predator populations as they will not be able to hunt the introduced pray animal.

photosynthesis and cellular respiration both use electron transport chains. what is the source of electrons for photosynthesis a
goldfiish [28.3K]

Water serves as an electron source in the electron transport process of photosynthesis. The electron is extracted from water by using solar energy.

What is the electron transport chain's source of energy?

The electron transport chain uses the energy released by oxygen and reduced compound reactions such as cytochrome c and (indirectly) NADH and FADH2 to pump protons into the intermembranous space, producing the electrochemical gradient over the inner mitochondrial membrane.

In photosynthesis, water is split to produce electrons in the presence of sunlight, a process known as the photolysis of water. The electrons are finally transferred to NADP+ by the chloroplast electron transport chain, where they are reduced to NADPH.

Therefore, In aerobic respiration, electrons from NADH and FADH2 are transferred to oxygen by the mitochondrial electron transport chain to reduce oxygen in the water.
