Answer:
cellular respiration
Explanation:
All exergonic processes produced in the cell, through which substances oxidize and chemical energy is released, are grouped under the name of cellular respiration, but to break down an organic molecule the cells employ, mainly dehydrogenations that can be carried carried out in the presence or absence of atmospheric O2 oxygen. There are therefore two types of breathing: aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. The latter also called fermentation.
Aerobic respiration (oxidative phosphorylation)
- Use molecular O2.
- It degrades glucose to CO2 and H2O
- Exergonic
- Recovers about 50% of chemical energy
- Present in most organisms.
- It uses enzymes located in the mitochondria.
The electrons are unequally shared. The electronegative element receives the electrons from the electropositive one.
So platinum is a transition metal. In general transition metals are reducers, which means they can give the electrons they have, to the sodium atoms. Also in chemistry we look at sub orbitals rather that shells(2,8,8). So due to the energy from heat, the d orbital split as electrons move to a higher energy level. Some of the electrons are given to the sodium ions and therefore the flame changes colour to yellow.
The excitation of the electrons is caused by them getting energy and so moving up an energy level. This energy is released and the electron returns to it's original state. The energy released, however, does not release in the same direction, but in different/various directions. Therefore the colour of the light changes as some energy is released in the surrounding.
Answer:
4) Each cytochrome has an iron‑containing heme group that accepts electrons and then donates the electrons to a more electronegative substance.
Explanation:
The cytochromes are <u>proteins that contain heme prosthetic groups</u>. Cytochromes <u>undergo oxidation and reduction through loss or gain of a single electron by the iron atom in the heme of the cytochrome</u>:
The reduced form of ubiquinone (QH₂), an extraordinarily mobile transporter, transfers electrons to cytochrome reductase, a complex that contains cytochromes <em>b</em> and <em>c₁</em>, and a Fe-S center. This second complex reduces cytochrome <em>c</em>, a water-soluble membrane peripheral protein. Cytochrome <em>c</em>, like ubiquinone (Q), is a mobile electron transporter, which is transferred to cytochrome oxidase. This third complex contains the cytochromes <em>a</em>, <em>a₃</em> and two copper ions. Heme iron and a copper ion of this oxidase transfer electrons to O₂, as the last acceptor, to form water.
Each transporter "downstream" is <u>more electronegative</u><u> than its neighbor </u>"upstream"; oxygen is located in the inferior part of the chain. Thus, the <u>electrons fall in an energetic gradient</u> in the electron chain transport to a more stable localization in the <u>electronegative oxygen atom</u>.
<span>In the sentence "The first animal cloned by nuclear transfer was a _____ named Dolly", the word that correctly completes the sentence is sheep. A sheep named Dolly is the first animal cloned from an adult somatic cell by nuclear transfer. She was cloned at the Roslin Institute of the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1996. There she died in 2003.</span>
