g Identify the statements that accurately describe how hydrogen ion concentration relates to energy production in oxidative phos

phorylation. Hydrogen ion concentration is lower in the mitochondrial matrix than in the intermembrane space. The pH in the mitochondrial matrix is lower than the pH in the intermembrane space. Energy is generated as a result of the difference in hydrogen ion concentration between the intermembrane space and the cytoplasm. Oxidative phosphorylation relies on the hydrogen ion concentration gradient generated and maintained by the electron transport chain. Hydrogen ions enter the mitochondrial matrix via facilitated diffusion.

Answer:

- Hydrogen ion concentration is lower in the mitochondrial matrix than in the intermembrane space.  

- Oxidative phosphorylation relies on the hydrogen ion concentration gradient generated and maintained by the electron transport chain.  

- Hydrogen ions enter the mitochondrial matrix via facilitated diffusion.

Explanation:

Oxidative phosphorylation is a metabolic pathway by which Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) molecules are produced through the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH2 to molecular oxygen (O2). The hydrogen (H+) ions are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space, and this movement of protons generates an electrochemical gradient across the mitochondrial membrane which is used by the ATP synthase to produce ATP. This gradient is generated by the movement of electrons through a series of electron carriers (e.g., cytochrome c and ubiquinone) that are embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The movement of these H+ ions across the semipermeable mitochondrial membrane moving down their electrochemical gradient is named chemiosmosis and is an example of facilitated diffusion.

6. (3 pts) After transformation, 40 colonies were present on the plate. What is the transformation efficiency of the competent c
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Given:

Number of colonies on plate = 40

Amount of DNA used for transformation = 100ng

Volume of competent cells used = 100ul

Total volume = 1ml (1000ul)

Volume plated for growth = 200ul

The amount of cells transformed per 1 µg of DNA is called the transformation efficiency

(CFU is colony forming units) => (number of colonies on plate/ng of DNA plated) X 1000 ng/µg = CFU/µg of DNA

Amount of DNA used for plating = 100ng * (200/1000)

                                                      = 100ng * (1/5)

                                                      = 100/5 = 20ng

Efficiency calculation = 40 colonies / 20ng = 2 colonies/ng

               (2 colonies/ng) * (1000 ng/µg) = 2000 CFU/ug DNA

Transformation efficiency = 2000 Transformants / ug DNA

                                          = 2 x 10³ Transformants / ug DNA

Explanation:

Efficiency of transformation is highest in the 100 pg-1 ng range, so Low transformation efficiency could be because of high amount of DNA used for transformation.

The answers are principles C and D. After the big bang, particles in gas clouds were closer to each other and clumped up faster. As they clumped together, they gained more gravitational force, eventually creating asteroids, stars, and planets.
