The electron transport chain (ETC), or respiratory chain, is linked to proton movement and ATP synthesis. Select the statements

that accurately describe the electron transport chain. Choose all that apply The outer membrane of mitochondria is readily permeable to small molecules and hydrogen ions. Electron carriers are organized into four complexes of proteins and prosthetic groups. Electrons generated by the citric acid cycle in the intermembrane space enter the ETC. Electron carriers in the ETC include ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) and cytochrome c. The reactions of the ETC take place in the outer membrane of mitochondria space. Prosthetic groups, such as iron-sulfur centers, are directly involved with electron transfer.

The following are the accurate statements:  

1. The outer membrane of mitochondria is readily permeable to hydrogen ions and small molecules, due to the existence of the protein that is known as porin proteins.  

2. The electron carriers are arranged into four complexes of prosthetic groups and proteins. The four complexes of electron carriers are complex I, coenzyme Q, complex III (cytochrome a, b, c), and complex IV (cytochrome oxidase)

3. The electron carriers in the electron transport chain comprise cytochrome C and ubiquinone.  

4. The prosthetic groups like iron-sulfur centers are directly taking part in electron transfer. It is these Fe-S centers, which accept and then transfer electrons.

Decide whether each statement describes saturated fat, unsaturated fat, or both saturated and unsaturated fats.
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Statement 1.) Both saturated and unsaturated fats.

Statement 2.) Saturated fat

Statement 3.) Unsaturated fat

Statement 4.) Unsaturated fat

Statement 5.) Both saturated and unsaturated fats.

Statement 6.) Saturated fat.

Explanation:

Fatty acids are straight chain carbon compounds of varying lengths. It is an important component of lipid in plant and animals. All fats are known to contain nine calories per gram, therefore can add to the weight of an individual. There are two type of fatty acids which includes:

--> Saturated fatty acids: these are fatty acids that contains no double bonds making it solid at room temperature. They are usually found in animal products such as milk, cheese and meat. They are absorbed in the villi of small intestine after digestion. One of the disadvantages of consuming diet rich in saturated fat is Saturated fats might increase LDL cholesterol levels. These are the bad cholesterol which are affected by inhibiting the LDL receptor activities leading to its increase. This can lead to heart disease conditions.

--> Unsaturated fatty acids: These are fatty acids which may contain one or more double bonds making it liquid at room temperature. They are found in plant oil (omega 6) and fish oil (omega 3). When consumed, they are absorbed in the villi of small intestine and helps maintain a good balance of cholesterol in blood.
