Answer:

the engineer needs to consider alternatives for all of the areas of the design process that are considered costs

Explanation:

In order to accomplish this, the engineer needs to consider alternatives for all of the areas of the design process that are considered costs. This includes materials, marketing, manufacturing, etc. Many times the material that is being used alone can skyrocket the cost of making a specific product. Therefore changing to a new material may lack some of the wanted benefits but will reduce the overall cost. Manufacturing techniques can also drastically reduce costs by simplifying the process you save on electricity costs and worker wages, while still outputting the same amount of product, which in term reduces the overall costs of the item.

What are the consequences of a proton gradient and how could a gradient be used in the mitochondria?
astraxan [27]
<span>At the inner mitochondrial membrane, a high energy electron is passed along an electron transport chain. The energy that is being released pumps hydrogen out of the matrix space. The gradient is created by this process, drives hydrogen back through the membrane, through the ATP synthase. Thus, </span>the ATP is very essential for life, and that a proton gradient and membrane prospective are vital in order for ATP synthesis to occur in the mitochondria. However, mitochondria is very active that it can converse its process. Complex V is the enzyme liable for final ATP synthesis at the end of oxidative phosphorylation.
