Answer:

Option B, They convert ADP to ATP

Explanation:

The H+ ions uses energy (released by the passage of electrons from higher energy level to lower energy level) for moving into intermembrane space thereby establishing a proton gradient.The proton moves through this concentration gradient by using hydrophilic tunnels. In the mitoc hondrial membrane, H+ ion move down their electrochemical gradient with the assistance of ATP synthase (an enzyme). ATP synthase causes the conversion of ADP to ATP thorugh chemiosmosis where energy from a proton gradient is used to make ATP.

Thus as the protons move down their concentration gradient in the electron transport chain, they convert ADP to ATP

Answer:

Una enzima es una sustancia, generalmente una proteína, en la célula de un organismo que acelera las reacciones químicas.

Durante el pardeamiento enzimático, una enzima llamada fenolasa y otro compuesto orgánico que se encuentra en las células de la fruta llamados fenoles pasan por una reacción de oxidación cuando se exponen al oxígeno. La fenolasa regula la reacción, convirtiendo los fenoles en melanina.

Por lo general, las enzimas de la fruta están encerradas en tejido. Las enzimas están metidas en sus células, trabajando para madurar la fruta. Pero cuando esas células se descomponen, ya sea por una causa externa como si alguien muerde o corta la fruta o por causas naturales como el envejecimiento, las enzimas se liberan y entran en contacto con el oxígeno, lo que desencadena la reacción química y hace que la fruta se vuelva marrón.

N pea plants there is complete dominance for the trait of flower color. the p allele produces purple flowers and p produces whit
Reptile [31]
PP-  purple homozygote
pp- white homozygote
Pp- purple hetrozygote

If these flowers cross, we obtain heterozygote offsprings with a genotype: Pp (100% of them will be like this)

Now, if those offsprings cross with each other: Pp x Pp
results:
  1/4 would be purple  homozygote -> PP
  1/4 would be white -> pp
  2/4 would be purple heterozygotes -> Pp
Genotipic ratio: 3:1 (3 are purple; 1 is white)

Answer: Peroxisome

Explanation:

A peroxisome is a membrane-bound organelle usually found in the cytoplasm of almost all eukaryotic cells. It is an oxidative organelle.

Eukaryotes are comprised of one or more cells that contain peroxisomes. The organelles were first discovered by the Belgian scientist Christian de Duve, who was same person that discovered lysosomes.

Peroxisomes contain a variety of enzymes, which primarily function together to get rid of toxic substances in the cell, and in particular, hydrogen peroxide which a common byproduct of cellular metabolism. These organelles contain enzymes that convert the hydrogen peroxide to water, making it remain safe in order to be released back into the cell. Some types of peroxisomes, such as those in liver cells, detoxify alcohol and several other harmful compounds by transferring hydrogen from the poisons to molecules of oxygen (known as oxidation). Other perixosomes are more important for their ability to initiate the production of phospholipids, which are typically used in the formation of membranes.
