NAD and FAD work by loading and unloading _________ and _________ during energy transfers.

Answer:

Hydrogen and electrons

Explanation:

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) serve as reducing power during energy transfers. One NAD+ accepts one hydrogen ions and two electrons and becomes reduced into NADH. Likewise, FAD accepts two hydrogen ions and two electrons and is reduced into FADH2. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 into NAD+ and FAD respectively releases both hydrogen ions and electrons.  

For example, some of the energy of glucose released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle is temporarily stored in the form of NADH and FADH2. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 via electron transfer chain of mitochondria releases both electrons and hydrogen ions (protons). The protons are pumped across the inner mitochondrial membrane to generate the proton concentration gradient.

fiasKO [112]
<span>A CO2 molecule found a friendly stomata on the bottom of a leaf. As the sun rose, the leaf's cells opened up to let the molecule in through the stoma. Soon, it was moving around inside with other CO2 and water molecules. Soon, the plant--powered by the sun--began re-assembling the molecule into new forms, adding and subtracting bits with other molecules, to make sweet glucose and release oxygen into the air. A curious rabbit couldn't resist a few nibbles of the sweet leaves with their glucose, and soon the CO2 molecule, in its new form as glucose, was inside the bunny's belly, being converted into energy.</span>

antiseptic1488 [7]

Gary would perform the duty of <u>handwriting analysis</u> in civil justice more often than what he does as a criminal forensic scientist.

Gary is a police officer who is also a forensic scientist, working in the criminal justice system. This means he collects, analyzes fingerprints, examining blood spatter all to have evidence against a criminal. Know, he works in the criminal justice system meaning the government, which could be government law enforcers would need those evidence against an accused individual at a federal or state criminal court. On the other hand, in a civil justice system, citizens can bring lawsuits against one another.

Now he would like to work for the civil justice system, and for his experience as a criminal forensic scientist, he would fit handwriting analysis since handwriting analysis is also a forensic practice done for the purpose of providing evidence in court. But this time he would be assessing the identity of a person from their written documents where there are differences between writing samples instead of processing fingerprints.

In summary, Gary would perform the duty of handwriting analysis in civil justice systems assessing the identity of a person from their written documents.
