Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options, the options are:

A) What is the radius of each particle of the substance?

B) Does the substance contain more than one type of atom?

C) Was a chemical reaction necessary to create the substance?

D) What is the electrical charge of the particles of the substance?

The answer is B

Explanation:

In chemistry, an element is a substance made up of a single type of atom i.e. only one atom of the same type constitutes an element while a compound is a substance that contains two or more different elements. If a compound contains different elements, it means that a compound will certainly contain more than one type of atom.

According to this question, the best question to ask when Alyssa wants to differentiate between an element and a compound is: DOES THE SUBSTANCE CONTAIN MORE THAN ONE TYPE OF ATOM?

- If the answer is yes, the substance is a COMPOUND

- If the answer is no, the substance is an ELEMENT.

Which of the following is/are common to chemiosmosis and the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis? electron transport onl

blondinia [14]

Answer:

Both electron transport and a proton gradient

Explanation:

The process of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and electron transport chain in photosynthesis undergo chemiosmosis to produce ATP molecules.

Chemiosmosis is a process where the energy utilized by the movement of proton and electrons produces ATP molecules.

Both the processes involve the movement of electrons through electron carriers where the reduced energy is utilized to drive the flow of protons through the plasma membrane. This creates a proton gradient across the plasma membrane which rotates the ATP synthase and converts the ADP molecules into ATP molecules.

Thus, the selected option is correct.
