The correct answer is: C) the extraction of energy from high-energy electrons remaining from glycolysis and the citric acid cycle

Electrons from electron carriers (NADH and FADH from glycolysis and citric acid cycle) donate electrons to the electron transport chain and that causes changes in protein complexes of electron transport chain. As a consequence, protein complexes pump H+ across a selectively permeable cell membrane from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space of mitochondria.  H+ can only get back and pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane with the help of ATP synthase (down their electrochemical gradient). ATP synthase turned by the force of the H+ diffusing through it forms ATP by adding a phosphate to ADP. This type of ATP synthesis  is called oxidative phosphorylation and it is based on chemiosmosis-movement of ions across a selectively permeable membrane.

A cone has a volume of 7,560 cubic millimeters . what is the volume of a similar come that is one sixth size of this cone?
IRINA_888 [86]
Answer: 1,260 cubic mm

(1/6)(7,560) = 7,560/6 = 1,260
multiplying by 1/6 is the same as dividing by 6 (6 and 1/6 are reciprocals)

A geneticist is studying a disease trying to determine how its inherited. DNA testing was completed on three generations of a fa
Anton [14]

Answer:

X-linked recessive inheritance

Explanation:

Since the disease is primarily present in males vs females, it is a s.ex linked disease.

In X-linked recessive inheritance, males tend to get disease b/c they only have one x (the other is y) which means if they get the bad "x" copy from mom then they definetely will get the disease.

Females can be carriers b/c they are XX. If they get a good copy from mom and suppose a bad copy from dad, they can still be healthy b/c the good copy is dominant. They will be carriers (cuz they have the bad copy) but themselves wont have the disease.

frozen [14]

As when things get eaten some of the energy is lost  the predators have to have more than one prey to survive, this means there is only a limited amount to be shared which means less predators
