Water serves as an electron source in the electron transport process of photosynthesis. The electron is extracted from water by using solar energy.
What is the electron transport chain's source of energy?
The electron transport chain uses the energy released by oxygen and reduced compound reactions such as cytochrome c and (indirectly) NADH and FADH2 to pump protons into the intermembranous space, producing the electrochemical gradient over the inner mitochondrial membrane.
In photosynthesis, water is split to produce electrons in the presence of sunlight, a process known as the photolysis of water. The electrons are finally transferred to NADP+ by the chloroplast electron transport chain, where they are reduced to NADPH.
Therefore, In aerobic respiration, electrons from NADH and FADH2 are transferred to oxygen by the mitochondrial electron transport chain to reduce oxygen in the water.

The answer is D. The heat is so intense in tropical regions it can stir up thunderstorms.
Answer:
Egg and sperm cells have to have half the number of chromosomes as in body cells so when they combine to form a zygote, the zygote is diploid and has the correct number of chromosomes. This explanation describes why meiosis produces haploid cells.
Explanation:
Meiosis is a type of cell division in which four haploid cells are produced from a diploid parent cell having two copies of each chromosome, where the number of chromosomes in the parent cell is reduced to half by undergoing DNA replication and nuclear division. Diploid cell contains two copies of each chromosome, one inherited from mother and the other from father while haploid cell contains only one copy of each chromosome. Examples of diploid cells (somatic cells) are skin, blood, muscle cells etc. Eggs or ovum (female gametes) and sperm (male gametes) are haploid reproductive cells. If the total number of chromosomes in a diploid cell is represented as '2n', then the number of chromosomes in a haploid cell is 'n'. During the fertilization process in an organism, the correct number of chromosomes is restored when the haploid male and female gamete combined to form a single diploid zygote, which is the first developmental stage of an organism.
Answer:
Chloroplast
its function is to create chemical energy using light energy
Explanation:
Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts which can be compared to mitochondria because they both produce energy for the organism. The Chloroplast contains within it a pigment, chlorophyll which captures the sun's energy and turns into energy which is used to create other parts of photosynthesis. Chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun to produce the free energy stored in ATP and NADPH through a process called photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are one of the many organelles found in the body, and are generally considered to have originated as endosymbiotic cyanobacteria. In this aspect, they are similar to mitochondria but are found only in plants and protist.
Answer:
TP synthesis in glycolysis: substrate-level phosphorylation
Explanation:
-One of the substrates is a molecule derived from the breakdown of glucose
-An enzyme is required in order for the reaction to occur
-A bond must be broken between an organic molecule and phosphate before ATP can form.
Incorrect:
-The phosphate group added to ADP to make ATP comes from free inorganic phosphate ions.
-The enyzmes involved in ATP synthesis must be attached to a membrane to produce ATP.
