Answer:

Cell membrane of prokaryotes and Inner mitochondria of eukaryotes

Explanation:

Electron transport chain is a part of oxidative phosphorylation which is the third step of aerobic cellular respiration in living organisms. The ETC is a complex of proteins and mobile electron carriers. It occurs when electron is being transferred from one electron carrier to another, starting from NADH and FADH2. A proton pump which is used to synthesize ATP is generated at the end.

This ETC process occurs in the cell membrane of prokaryotic cells due to the fact that they lack a membrane-bound Mitochondrion. ETC occurs in the inner membrane of the mitochondria called CRISTAE in eukaryotic cells.

Could a particular form of life survive on the Martian surface
coldgirl [10]
Gizmono
NASA reignited our hopes of finding alien life when it announced the first direct evidence of liquid water on Mars. But before we start indulging in fantasies of space crabs and reptilian beings, we ought to remember that Mars is a frigid world with a thin atmosphere. And that raises an obvious question: What sorts of life forms could actually live there?

Any life on Mars today is almost certainly microbial, but beyond that, we can’t be sure of anything until we actually dig it up and study it. Still, we can make some educated guesses about the nature of Martian life, by taking a deep dive into some of the weirdest biology on planet

Define the following terms in regards to the brain: ventricles, hemispheres, gyri, sulci, fissures, lobes, cerebral cortex.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

ventricules.-The ventricles of the brain are a communicating network of cavities filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and located within the brain parenchyma. The ventricular system is composed of 2 lateral ventricles, the third ventricle, the cerebral aqueduct, and the fourth ventricle.

Hemispheres.-The left side of the brain is responsible for controlling the right side of the body. It also performs tasks that have to do with logic, such as in science and mathematics. On the other hand, the right hemisphere coordinates the left side of the body, and performs tasks that have do with creativity and the arts.

Gyri and Sulci.- Sulci, the grooves, and gyri, the folds or ridges, make up the folded surface of the cerebral cortex.  A sulcus is a shallower groove that surrounds a gyrus.

Fissures.- A fissure is a large furrow that divides the brain into lobes and also into the two hemispheres as the longitudinal fissure.

Lobes.- Each side of your brain contains four lobes. The frontal lobe is important for cognitive functions and control of voluntary movement or activity. The parietal lobe processes information about temperature, taste, touch and movement, while the occipital lobe is primarily responsible for vision.

Cerebral cortex.- the furrowed outer layer of gray matter in the cerebrum of the brain, associated with the higher brain functions, as voluntary movement, coordination of sensory information, learning and memory, and the expression of individuality.

A protein channel is a transport protein that helps larger molecules, that would otherwise not be able to diffuse through the membrane of a cell to move in or out of the cell depending on the concentration gradient.
