Why does atp production via oxidative phosphorylation require an intact mitochondrial membrane?
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Production of ATP via oxidative phosphorylation require an intact mitochondrial membrane because of the creation of an electrical potential.

Explanation:

Oxidative phosphorylation is a method, in which energy is converted into ATP by a sequence of protein complexes located inside the mitochondrial inner membrane. Production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation requires an intact mitochondrial membrane because a change in electrical charge between both sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane results in the creation of an electrical potential. The protons have accumulated on the exterior of the mitochondria, making it positive (H), while the protons have been lost within, making it negative. On each surface of the membrane, a differential or gradient in chemical concentration has been formed. The cell transmits the energy stored in the decreased NADH and FADH via the electrochemical gradient.

A town has plans to create a series of soccer fields in an area where there are currently trees. One negative effect of building
Artist 52 [7]
True:  Because soccer fields need large areas or spaces and a town with already built houses would not suffice. In turn, the open available areas with trees and wildlife will be destroyed and mountains will be quarried and forcefully flattened to pave way for the fields. Soil erosion will happen because this will cause an imbalance on mountains, diverting the flow of the water to the low lands without trees seeping it. In addition, when these fields are already made, maintenance must also be sustained such as making the grass greener and healthier by putting pesticides and routine watering of soil to keep its moist  which will alter the natural soil quality.
