<span>Glucose produces NADH and FADH2 via glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Some ATP is produced in the process but is negligible. Most ATP is made by oxidative phosphorylation where NADH and FADH2 create a proton motive force along the inner mitochondrial membrane. In other words, the concentration of protons (H+) is high in the intermitochondrial space. The protons want to diffuse into the mitochondrial matrix and they do this by going through the ATP synthase protein which resembles a water turbine. As the protons move through the ATP synthase, ATP is produced. In essence the energy from H+ wanting to diffuse through the inner mitochondrial membrane is converted to energy in the form of ATP.

With advancing age, the lymphatic system ________.
Pepsi [2]

The right answer is D (less responsive to antigens)


It is proven that, after puberty, thymus activity (an organ that is included in the lymphatic system, producing T cells that pick up antigens) decreases and that in adult and aged people the thymus has no role. Work done in humans indicate that in fact the cellularity begins to decline from birth in favor of lymphocyte perivascular spaces and connective and adipose tissue, which leads to a decrease in the capture of antigens.

New neural pathways are created and strengthened when you
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

<u>Repeat a behaviour.</u>

Explanation:

When we adopt a new behaviour, a neural pathway is created and it gets stronger when we repeat until it become a new normal behaviour or a habit. When a message travels in a same neuronal pathway again and again, the brain begin to transmit it even more faster and these behaviours become automatic.
