Quartz

Explanation:

Quartz is a framework silicate made up of interlocking SiO₂. It is the most resistant mineral to weathering.

This is based on the Bowen's reaction series of minerals.

From the series;

  • In a given melt, quartz is the last mineral to crystallize out of solution.
  • Olivine is usually the first
  • Quartz being the last does not readily react with other substances.
  • This makes it resistant to agent of weathering.

Cells were treated with a chemical that inhibits the first step of the electron transport chain. How would this affect the level
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The levels of inputs and outputs will be negatively affected

Please find the detailed explanation below

Explanation:

The electron transport chain consists of a series of molecules that transfers electrons to one another in a group called COMPLEXES. The major aim of the ETC is to build a proton gradient needed for the synthesis of ATP. The first step in the ETC is as follows:

The process of ETC starts when two electron carriers/donors viz: NADH and FADH2 transfers their electrons to COMPLEX I. If this does not occur, the ETC cannot function. Hence, in a case where cells were treated with a chemical that inhibits the first step of the electron transport chain, the input and output (ATP) will be greatly affected in the sense that other inputs will not be used or the output will not be produced.
