<span>The pH of the matrix increases and the pH of the inter membrane cell decreases
</span>
The reason behind this is the presence of the electron transport chain within the mitochondria which requires the transport of hydrogen ions. The movement of hydrogen ions results in varying pH. If the mitochondria dies, the hydrogen ions will not move into the matrix, causing its pH to increase, and they will build up in the inter membrane causing a decrease in pH.

Answer:
Option a, survive in extreme environments
Explanation:
Both Thermus and Deinococcus belong to the group of bacteria that are collectively termed as Deinococcus–Thermus group.
Deinococcus are radiation-resistant vegetative cell as they are able to resist ionising radiation. Also some species of Deinococcus are thermophile.
Thermus are thermophilic bacteria that are able to live in extreme temperature condition and thus are able to tolerate high temperature.
Hence, option A is correct.
The answer is C.
Transgenic means that one or more DNA sequences from another species has been introduced by artificial means. For example, animals usually are made transgenic by having a small sequence of DNA injected into a fertilized egg or developing embryo. Transgenic plants can be made by introducing foreign DNA into a variety of different tissues.
Most transgenic organisms are generated in the laboratory for research purposes. Others have been developed for commercial purposes such as golden rice that has been modified to produce beta-carotene, the precursor to vitamin A.
