I am trying to determine reactants going into the electron transport chain. Is this right?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Yes, this is correct.

Explanation:

  • In each glycolytic pathway, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase produces 1 molecules of NADH as a result of reduction of NAD+.
  • Pyruvate dehydrogenase converts pyruvate to Acetyl CoA producing 1 molecule of NADH per pyruvate oxidized.
  • In Kreb's cycle, isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, and malate dehydrogenase reactions produce 1 molecule of NADH each. Furthermore, succinate dehydrogenase reaction produces a single molecule of FADH2 per FAD reduced.
  • Since, we began with 2 molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, we  multiply the above figures by 2 and get a total of 10 NADH and 2 FADH2.

A trait I which the alleles are not dominant over one another
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

They are co-dominance and incomplete dominance.

<h2 />

Explanation:

Co-dominance occurs when both alleles in a heterozygous genotype for a trait are both equally expressed. An example is the human AB blood group, in which both the A and B alleles are equally expressed.

Incomplete dominance occurs when the heterozygous genotype for a trait is expressed as a blend. An example is blue feather color in chickens, in which a black allele and white allele together are expressed as blue feather color.

Elza [17]

Blood is the connective tissue that contains large amounts of fluid and transports nutrients wastes and gases.
