4 0
Fatty acids and glycerol best describes the basic structure of lipids. Fatty acids is one of the major components of triglyceride. It is a form of lipids that is used to store energy. Fatty acids are composed largely of a chain carbon atoms bonded with hydrogen atoms. At one of the ends of fatty acids is called carboxyl group. In terms of number of carbons, they are typically an even numbers.

When electrons flow along the electron transport chains of mitochondria
IgorC [24]

Answer: a. the ph of the matrix increases

Explanation:

NADH and FADH2 molecules resulting from the Krebs cycle (by reducing respectively NAD + and Electron and proton carriers (e-  and H +), are oxidized in the final reactions of cellular respiration, and the electrons and protons are captured by oxygen, the final acceptor. The flow of electrons along the respiratory chain causes the active transport of protons along the chain through the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Protons return to the mitochondrial matrix by diffusion - chemiosmosis - and at the same time, ADP undergoes oxidative phosphorylation forming ATP. Because of this movement of protons inside the matrix, the ph of the matrix increases.

juin [17]

Answer:

This question lacks options, options are:

a) indirect

b) mosaic

c) determinative

d) regulative

e) direct.  

The correct answer is d.

Explanation:

The egg (ovum) like the embryo during the first embryonic divisions, do not possess any sign of polarity. This development mechanism can be called regulative development(in contrast to the mosaic model) since the fate of the cells that originate is not fixed and can be modified during development. In regulative embryos, part of the embryo can be removed and the remaining cells can compensate for the loss and give a complete individual as the final product.The strongest evidence that continues to support this regulatory model is based on the plasticity or potential that mammalian cells possess before implantation. It is known that the blastomeres produced by the first divisions can be replaced with each other or even can be eliminated without apparently altering the embryonic development and therefore they are equivalent (without polarity).
