Answer: (B) to function as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain.
Explanation:
Oxidative phosphorylation is a process that takes place in cellular respiration. It consists of two component pathways which includes the electron transport chain (etc) and chemiosmosis.
In etc the electrons are passed from one to another molecule, the energy is released by the electrochemical gradient.
In chemiosmosis, the energy stored in the electrochemical gradient is used to produce energy molecules in the form of ATP (Adenosine triphosphate).
The oxygen is present at the end of the etc. It's function is to accept the electrons also picks up the protons to form water. If oxygen is absent then no molecule will accept the electrons, the electron transport chain will stop. There will be no chemiosmosis as the ATP will not be produced in the absence of formation of a electron gradient.
Option are not provided in the question. The complete question is:
Which activity would help decrease the greatest carbon-releasing activity in US homes?
limiting time in hot showers
wearing layers of clothing
turning off lights when leaving a room
unplugging electronics when not in use
Answer:
wearing layers of clothing
Explaination:
Increasing carbon emission in environment is one of the major cause of global warming and climate change. There are several human activities that contribute to increament in carbon-releasing such as burning of fossil fuels, industrial manufacturing and deforestation et-cetra.
Wearing layers of clothes can decrease the greatest carbon-releasing activity in US homes because the weather of US is cold and people use a lot of fossil fuel to make their surrounding warm. Wearing layered clothes will help US people to feel warm and reduce the burning of fossil fuel which is major contributor to carbon emission.
Hence, The correct option is wearing layers of clothing.
Answer:
The hemoglobin molecule has four binding sites for oxygen molecules: the iron atoms in the four heme groups. Thus, each Hb tetramer can bind four oxygen molecules.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is C) chlorine</em>
Explanation:
Sea water contains salts in abundance. It can be described as the water which makes up the oceans and the seas. It is known to contain approximately 96.5% water and 2,5 percent of salts. Sodium and chloride ions are the most abundant salt ions to be found in the sea. The concentration of chloride ions is 0.546 mol/kg and the concentration of sodium ions is 0.469 mol/kg. Hence, chloride ions are slightly abundant than sodium ions.
