Nutrient and waste requirements for the developing fetus are handled during the first few weeks by:

Answer:

diffusion through the endometrium

Explanation:

During the first weeks after egg implantation, its nutrition will depend on trophoblastic digestion and endometrial phagocytosis, ie the nutrient and residue requirements for the developing fetus are treated during the first weeks by diffusion through the endometrium. However by the 12th week of pregnancy, the placenta has developed sufficiently so that it can thereafter supply all the necessary nutrients.

Nutrients diffuse from the maternal blood through the placental villus membrane into the fetal blood, through the umbilical vein through the fetus. In turn, fetal excreta such as carbon dioxide, urea and other substances diffuse from fetal blood into maternal blood and are eliminated outward by the mother's excretory functions.

The poison cyanide binds to the last complex of the electron transport chain and prevents it from accepting electrons. Assuming
Marianna [84]

Answer:

ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation will stop.

Explanation:

Cyanide inhibits cytochrome oxidase that passes electrons to the molecule oxygen. Cytochrome oxidase also pumps two protons from the matrix to the intermembrane space during electron transfer. Inhibition of cytochrome oxidase would not allow the transfer of electrons to oxygen and the whole electron transport chain would be stopped. There would not be any generation of proton concentration gradient to drive the process of ATP synthesis. Hence, ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation will be stopped after cyanide poisoning in aerobic cells.
