Biology

Marysya12 [62]2 years ago
7 0

When homeostasis is not maintained, the body cannot function properly and illness may ensure. Homeostasis is the process in which the body's overall internal environment is kept constant in response to any external environmental changes. This involves maintaining stability in different body systems.

Which of the following statements is the most likely explanation for plant withering due to leaky membranes in cold temperatures
podryga [215]

Answer:

C. H+ ions do not accumulate inside the thylakoid, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.

Explanation:

Plant withering refers to the virtual death of plant cells due to lack of food. During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, ATP needed for the synthesis of sugar (food) is created in the thylakoid membrane of the CHLOROPLAST of plant cells.

In the light-dependent reaction, hydrogen ions (H+) builds up/accumulate in the thylakoid lumen to create an electrochemical or proton gradient i.e. a difference in the concentration of H+ ions across the membrane. The hydrogen ions passes through a protein complex called ATP synthase, which forms ATP from ADP (by adding phosphate group), from the energy generated by the electrochemical gradient formed as a result of hydrogen in (H+) build up.

Hence, a plant that possess leaky membrane due to the cold temperature will likely wither because H+ ions are not able to accumulate inside the thylakoid causing a proton gradient, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.

How are gasses exchanged in the alveoli
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The alveolar walls and capillary walls share a membrane. That's how close they're getting. This allows oxygen and carbon dioxide to readily pass from the respiratory system to the circulation. Oxygen molecules bind to red blood cells as they return to the heart.
