The correct answer is: A. minus end; dynein
Microtubules are cytoskeletal fibers that have an important role in the intracellular transport (movement of vesicles within the cell) and in the mitotic spindle during mitosis. The plus end of the microtubules extend through the periphery of the cells while the minus ends are anchored within the centrosome.
Necessary proteins for the vesicle’s movement are motor proteins:
• kinesin which is positive end directed
• dynein which is negative end directed
So, beside vesicles these proteins are also involved in organelles’ transport in opposite directions through the cytoplasm.
Answer:
The correct answer is e. the passage of electrons from one energy-generating carrier to another
Explanation:
The electron transport chain is a series of proteins and organic molecules found in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Electrons pass from one member of the transport chain to the next in a series of redox reactions. The energy released in these reactions is captured as a proton gradient, which in turn is used to form ATP in a process called chemosmosis.
These transport molecules, in the inner mitochondrial membrane, are reduced and oxidized, accepting electrons and transferring them to the next molecule, electrons descending from high energy levels to lower ones, that is, from one energy-generating carrier to another. When lowering to other levels, energy is released that will be used in the synthesis of ATP by oxidative phosphorylation.
