How does ATP synthase obtain the energy to produce ATP? a. Water splits, releasing electrons that flow from the stroma to the th

ylakoid space and attach to the active site of ATP synthase. b. Electrons from the reaction site center of photosystem II are funneled to ATP synthase, which uses the energy to produce ATP from ADP + Pi. c. A hydrogen ion from NADPH is used by ATP synthase to power the production of ATP from ADP + Pi, and an electron is released, splitting water. d. Hydrogen ions flow down a concentration gradient from the thylakoid space to the stroma through ATP synthase, releasing energy that can be used to produce ATP from ADP + Pi.

Answer:

Option D, Hydrogen ions flow down a concentration gradient from the thylakoid space to the stroma through ATP synthase, releasing energy that can be used to produce ATP from ADP + Pi.

Explanation:

The hydrogen ion released during the breaking of water molecule starts building in the thylakoid space. This causes a difference in concentration across the membrane due to difference in build proton concentration and the charges created across the membrane.  

Potential energy obtained from this set up is collected and stored as chemical energy in ATP through the assistance of enzyme ATP synthase

Option D is correct

What feature can increase animals odds in reproducion
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Animals engage in characteristic behaviors that increase the odds of reproduction. Animals and plants develop characteristic structures and behaviors to help them survive in their environment and pass on genetic information to their offspring. It is important that the offspring be cared for and protected so they can grow to adulthood and reproduce.

What are the filaments called that help some bacteria stick to surfaces and exchange plasmids through conjugation?
TEA [102]

Pili are the filaments that help some bacteria stick to surfaces and exchange plasmids through conjugation.

Pili are hollow, hair like appendages that are found on the surface of some bacterial cells. Pili are composed of a special protein (known as pilin). Pilia act as a means of attachment of bacteria to surfaces (such as their host) and it is also used by bacteria to exchange their genetic material (plasmids) in the mating process between cells (known as conjugation).

Iii. Which of these does the kinetic theory NOT explain?
meriva

Answer:

The following statement is not part of the kinetic molecular theory : Attractive and repulsive forces are present between gas molecule. According to the kinetic molecular theory, there is no attractive (or repulsive) force between the molecules, as they move independent of each other.

Rarely, hybridization has occurred between polar bears and grizzlies. The presence of grolars and pizzlies:
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The correct answer is d. suggests that the time since divergence may not be sufficient for complete reproductive isolation to have occurred.

Explanation:

Polar bears are evolved from brown bear and grizzly bears are subspecies of brown bear so polar bears and brown bears are different species. These two species habitat is different so they are geographically isolated but due to the melting of ice by global warming, their niche started overlapping.

Commonly they do no reproduce with each other because of the reproductive isolation but they can produce viable hybrids called growlers and pizzlies if interspecies reproduction takes place which shows that the time interval since divergence is not enough that can make these two species completely reproductive isolated. So the right answer is d.
