Answer:

C. NAD⁺  

Step-by-step explanation:

NADH is oxidized to NAD⁺ in Complex I of the Electron Transport Chain.

NADH ⟶ NAD⁺ + H⁺ + 2e⁻

The electrons continue through the Electron Transport Chain, and the NAD⁺ is used in three places during the Krebs Cycle.

(a) Isocitrate to oxalosuccinate

Isocitrate + NAD⁺ ⟶ oxalosuccinate + NADH + H⁺

(b) α-Ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA

α-ketoglutarate + NAD+ + CoA → succinyl CoA + CO₂ + NADH

(c) Malate to oxaloacetate

Malate + NAD⁺  ⟶ oxaloacetate + NADH + H⁺

The NADH produced by these three reactions can then be used by Complex I in the Electron Transport Chain.

Basic info:

The Krebs cycle, the electron transport chain and respiration (aerobic) are closely related, in fact, the Krebs cycle is part of cellular respiration.

Further info (detailed):

In anaerobic respiration we obtain oxygen, which functions as an electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, which produces NAD+ that is later used in the Krebs cycle to produce NADH and FADH2 that are used as electron carryiers in the ETC.

But, what does the ETC actually do? Why is it so important?

In the ETC, basic substances are produced -  water, ATP and NAD/FAD.

The water and the ATP will be used in many random processes, but the NAD and the FAD are for the Krebs cycle (also glycolysis). During the Krebs cycle, NAD and FAD are used mainly for oxidizing acetyl-CoA to generate energy in the form of NADH and FADH2.

Why does the energy produced by the Krebs cycle come in the form of NADH and FADH2?

Beacuse during the oxidisation of acetyl-CoA (and others) both NAD and FAD react with H+.

Hope it helped,

Match the following.
lianna [129]

Answer:

The correct match is given below:

Explanation:

  1. A flower containing a pistil, stamen, calyx, and corolla – Complete flower. When a flower consists of essential whorls pistil and stamen and accessory whorls calyx and corolla, the flower is said to be complete.
  2. The collective term for the petals of a flower- Corolla. The corolla is a accessory whorl which consist s of its unit called petal.
  3. It has pistils, but no stamens - Female flower. A flower with only pistil is called unisexual pistillate flower.
  4. A stalk which supports the anther – Filament. A typical stamen consists of an anther, connective and a filament.
  5. A flower that lacks one or more of the following parts: pistil, stamen, calyx, or corolla corolla.—Incomplete flower. A flower which lacks any of the essential or accessory whorl is called incomplete flower.
  6. A flower that has male parts only – Male flower.  A flower with only stamen is called unisexual staminate flower.
  7. A spore produced by meiosis – Meiospores. Spores can produced by mitosis or meiosis. If it is produced as a result of mitosis it is said to be mitospores.

Ash trees are being removed when they show signs of the ash borer, a parasite that affects the trees and kills them off. What be
guajiro [1.7K]
<span>The ash trees are being cut when the show signs of infestation of the ash borer. Ash borer in particular the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is a tiny bug but can really do a great damage to the tree. When the tree is infested with the ash borer, they lay their eggs in the bark of tree, when the eggs hatch the lavas would start eating on the inner tissues of the tree blocking the flow of nutrients and water in the tree that causes the tree’s to death.  If the tree is infested they cut it down, burn and bury the wood to stop the spread of infestation. Ash trees are valued for its strength and elasticity that is often used to make baseball bats, bows, tool handles and other products that needs durable wood.</span>
