Answer:

A) 6

Explanation:

Complex III of the electron transport chain transfers four protons across the membrane during aerobic respiration, per pair of electrons. In the other hand, complex IV is responsible for transporting two protons (per pair of electrons) across the membrane.

If the given compound injects a pair of electron into complex III,  four protons will accumulated due to complex III activity and then two more protons as these electrons move forward to complex IV. This means a total of 6 protons being transported to intermembrane space.

When lemming populations decline, populations of Arctic foxes also decrease. The limiting factor on the population of Arctic fox
kolbaska11 [484]

The limiting factor on the population of Arctic foxes is density-dependent. In population ecology, density-dependent processes happen when population growth rates are regulated by the density of a population. Density-dependent factors are factors where the effects on the size or growth of a population vary with the density of the population itself.

1. Describe how pigments in the chloroplast play a role in coloring the plant and in producing energy.
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Hello There!!

Explanation:

The purpose of the chloroplast is to make sugars that feed the cell's machinery. Photosynthesis is the process of a plant taking energy from the Sun and creating glucose. When the energy from the Sun hits a chloroplast and the chlorophyll molecules, light energy is converted into the chemical energy.

hope this helps,have a great day!!
