5 0

Answer: A. In the electron transport chain, a series of reactions move electrons through carriers.

B. The products of the electron transport chain are H2O and either NAD or FAD.

E. The electron transport chain is a series of oxidation-reduction reactions that occur in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Explanation:

the best suitable statement is it transfers energy stepwise from one compound to another, The electron transport chain is a series of proteins and organic molecules found in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Electrons are transferred from one member of the transport chain to another in a series of redox reactions.

Answer:

The correct statements are: a), b) and e)

Explanation:

The high energy electrons are released from NAD and FAD and move along the electron transport chains, these are in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. As the high energy electrons are transported along the chains, part of their energy is captured. This energy is used to pump hydrogen ions (from NAD and FAD) through the inner membrane, out of the matrix into the intermembrane space. The electron transport chain serves the sole purpose of transporting protons from one side of these membranes to the other. The protons, thus, are concentrated on one side of the membrane. ATP synthase acts as a channel protein, helping hydrogen ions cross the membrane. It also acts as an enzyme, forming ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. After passing through the electron transport chain, the "spent" electrons combine with oxygen to form water. This is why oxygen is needed; in the absence of oxygen, this process cannot occur.

Which of the following is homozygous dominant? a AA b Aa c aa
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: a). AA

Explanation: Every trait is controlled by at least a pair of gene. Genes have different forms known as alleles. Alleles can be dominant or recessive. A dominant allele expresses itself in the presence of a recessive allele and masks the effect of a recessive allele. A recessive allele cannot express itself in the presence of a dominant allele and it's effect is masked by a dominant allele. Dominant alleles are usually written in upper cases such as A, T, while recessive alleles are usually written in lower cases such as a, t. The two alleles that determines a trait is called a genotype. A genotype can be homozygous if the two alleles are identical such as in AA or aa

and can be heterozygous if the two alleles are not identical such as in Aa, Tt.

Why is it colder in winter than summer?
iragen [17]
One reason is because the short days and long nights prevent the earth from warming up, another reason could be because the sun's rays in winter are more spread out thus minimizing the amount of energy

Answer:

Budding is a type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site. ... Since the reproduction is asexual, the newly created organism is a clone and excepting mutations is genetically identical to the parent organism.
