Process of Electron Transport Chain (ETC), is a series of transferring from electron donors to their acceptors.  It basically means a transfer from high energy molecule to a low-energy molecule.  This process of extracting energy by transfer is classified as a chemical reaction and we see it is the path taken of cellular respiration (NADH) and FADH2) and in photosynthesis, NADPH.  It starts with an electron, NADH and FADH2, when the electron donors release a proton gradient and it creates an imbalance.  Think of it as a see-saw with one heavy person on one end and a lighter one on the other end.  The protons actually attempt to defuse back across this see-saw of a membrane and it releases energy during the cross over which we call Chemiosmosis.

The maintenance of boundaries between the internal organs of the body and the outside world is achieved by the endocrine system.
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The endocrine system includes several glands that do not have ducts. These glands release their secretions directly into the blood. These secretions are called hormones that regulate the various body processes to maintain the homeostasis. However, the endocrine system does not separate the internal organs of the body from the surroundings. This is the function of the integumentary system. Skin is one of the structures of the integumentary system that separates all the body parts present inside the body from the external world.
