The right answer is NADP+.

Ferredoxin is an iron-sulfur protein that effects electron transfer in a large number of redox reactions in cell metabolism through Fe-S clusters whose iron cations oscillate between +2 (ferrous) oxidation states. and +3 (ferric). The first protein of this type was isolated in 1962 from the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium pasteurianum. A chloroplast-specific ferredoxin is involved in the cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation reactions of photosynthesis. In non-cyclic photophosphorylation, ferredoxin is the ultimate electron acceptor and reduces NADP + under the action of ferredoxin-NADP + reductase (EC 1.18.1.2) with FAD and a flavin group as cofactors:

2 ferredoxin- [Fe (2+) Fe (3+) S2 (-2)] + NADP (+) + H (+) ==> 2 ferredoxin- [Fe3 (+2) S2 (-2)] + NADPH .

Tom [10]

The answer is the Ribosomes of mitochondria and plastids are very similar in their structure and function to bacterial ribosomes.Mitochondria, chloroplasts, and bacteria are alike in size. Bacteria also have DNA and ribosomes alike to those of mitochondria and chloroplasts. Based on this and other proof, experts ponder host cells and bacteria shaped endosymbiotic relationships precedent, when separate host cells took in oxygen-using and photosynthetic bacteria but did not put an end to them.

Red blood cells,carrying dioxide(a waste product of cellular respiration) travel in the blood vessel to the lung; to get rid of

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Red blood cells or erythrocytes carry oxygen to the cells of the body so that they can have energy and function properly. This is not the only function of red blood cells. Also, they carry dioxide, which is a waste product that needs to be out of our body. Erythrocytes carry the dioxide to the lungs, specifically to the alveoli. In the alveoli due to the inhalation, oxygen enters our body traveling up to the lungs, specifically to the alveoli, where thanks to the thin wall of it as well as the one on the capillaries that are in contact with it, the dioxide enters the lungs to be expelled in the exhalation, and the oxygen is taken by the red blood cells to be used in the cellular respiration and generate energy to keep the vital functions of our body.
