Two nutrient solutions are maintained at the same pH. Actively respiring mitochondria are isolated and placed into each of the t

wo solutions. Oxygen gas is bubbled into one solution. The other solution is depleted of available oxygen. Which of the following best explains why ATP production is greater in the tube with oxygen than in the tube without oxygen?
A. The rate of proton pumping across the inner mitochondrial membrane is lower in the sample without oxygen. B. Electron transport is reduced in the absence of a plasma membrane. C. In the absence of oxygen, oxidative phosphorylation produces more ATP than does fermentation. D. In the presence of oxygen, glycolysis produces more ATP than in the absence of oxygen.

Was told the answer is A. but i need help justifying that and why it is not D

Answer:

Explanation:

A is correct because energy from electrons from oxygen are used to pump the H+ (as well as electrons from NADH) It's not D because glycolysis happens both in absence and presence of oxygen and never uses O2 so glycolysis is the same in both processes, its what happens after glycolysis that is dependent on the availability of oxygen (oxidative phosphorylation or fermentation)

What are the population of grasslands. it can be animals or plants
NemiM [27]
<span>Grasslands are one of the most widespread of all the major vegetation types of the world. This is so, however, only because human manipulation of the land has significantly altered the natural vegetation, creating artificial grasslands of cereal crops, pastures, and other areas that require some form of repetitious, unnatural disturbance such as cultivation, heavy grazing, burning, or mowing to persist. This discussion, however, concentrates on natural and nearly natural grasslands.

Which statement describes how pioneer species and climax communities are different?
Lorico [155]

Answer: D). Primary species have large numbers of offsprings, and climax communities contain species that have small numbers of offsprings.

An ecological succession is a process of gradual changes occurs in a biological community with respect to changes in the non-living abiotic factors  (water, air and sunlight) and with respect to time until the ecosystem attains stability. Primary or pioneer species are the species which invade the previously barren and primitive landmass for their survival. These species make the environment suitable for the growth of other species. These grow and develop in the initial stages of succession. These species are simple organisms which reproduce asexually and produces large number of offsprings. Examples are lichen and moss. Lichen grows on the surface of rocks and acids released by them causes withering of rocks into soil which facilitate the growth of mosses and other plants. Climax community develops in an ecosystem after replacing many previously inhabiting species. Climax community develops in the end of the ecological succession. It contains species which are highly complex and uses sexual reproduction for the production of offsprings which are less in number as compared to those produced by pioneer species by asexual reproduction.
