Which of the following expresses why water is so important to living organisms?

3 Explain why the average height of students is increasing in many parts of the world.

denpristay [2]

<h2> The average height of people in different nations has has increased approximately by 10 centimeters.</h2><h3>It mostly comes down to nutrition and child-rearing styles. </h3><h3>Some scientists believe that the increase in teenage and out-of-wedlock pregnancies in the developed world may be an unanticipated consequence of improved nutrition.</h3>

Tobacco smoking greatly increased over the last hundred or so years, but the old wives' dictum was always that "Smoking will stunt your growth!"

Hope this helped have a good day = ) .

A fetus develops in such a way that the type II cells of the lungs never develop, resulting in no production of surfactant in th

g100num [7]

Due to the high surface tension, the lungs remain crushed and you will not be able to breathe first.

During fertilization, the sperm and egg combine in one of the fallopian tubes to form a zygote. The zygote then descends the fallopian tube into a morula. Upon reaching the uterus, the morula becomes a blastocyst. The blastocyst then burrows into the inner wall of the uterus. This is a process called implantation.

The prenatal development process occurs in three major stages. The first two weeks after conception are called the germination period, the third to eighth weeks are called the fetal period, and the period from the ninth week to birth is called the fetal period.

The set of proteins in the cristae of the mitochondrion, which collectively extract the energy from reduced coenzymes to form at

lesantik [10]

Cell respiration involves different steps, among which there is the oxidative phosphorilation that produces and stores ATP. The answer is the <u><em>electron transporter chain</em></u>.

<h3>ELECTRON TRANSPORTER CHAIN -oxidative phosphorylation-</h3>

The electron transporter chain + chemiosmosis constitute the process of oxidative phosphorylation.

Chemiosmosis

Chemiosmosis refers to ATP production through a proton gradient.

Electron transporter chain

The electron transporter chain is a series of molecules and proteins located in the internal mitochondrial membrane.

It constitutes a series of enzymatic reactions to release and save energy for the correct functioning of the organism.

Along the chain, there are four proteinic complexes in the membrane, I, II, III, and IV, that contain the electrons transporters and the enzymes necessary to catalyze the electrons' transference from one complex to the other.

Different redox reactions occur to pass electrons along the chain.

Released energy creates a proton concentration gradient used to synthesize ATP.

<h3>Steps in the electectron transporter chain</h3>

1) NADH provides electrons to the first complex, Complex I. From there, electrons go to the coenzyme Q that carries them to complex II. Meanwhile, complex I pomp four protons to the intermembrane space.

2) Complex II receives electrons from CoQ and also receives electrons from FADH2. Electrons are sent from complex II to ubiquinone Q, which carries these electrons to complex III.

3) Complex III receives electrons from ubiquinone Q and pomps protons to the intermembrane space. Electrons are transferred to Cytochrome c.

Electrons travel from cytochrome c to complex IV.

4) Complex IV is the last complex that pomps protons to the intermembrane space.

5) Electrons are sent to O₂ molecules, which also receive protons in the matrix to create water molecules. Four electrons are needed to produce two water molecules from one O₂ molecule.

The proton gradient is used to produce ATP molecules.

In conclusion, <em>the set of proteins in the cristae of the mitochondrion, which collectively extract the energy from reduced coenzymes to form atp, are called the</em> <u><em>electron transporter chain</em></u>.

what happens to ocean water as it moves from antarctica to the equator? it transfers thermal energy to deeper layers of the ocea

muminat

Ocean waters has its own level of density which depends of the climate, temperature and most of all the location where it came from. The more the ocean water absorbs heat the more its density as a result it rises above from cold to hot. So the the water from the Antarctica usually is less dense and then become more dense when it goes to the equator which is more hot.
