Answer:

B. Complex II

Explanation:

Electrons Would Only Be Transferred From FADH2 And Fewer Protons Would Be Pumped Into The Intermembrane Space. The Entire Electron Transport Chain Would Stop Functioning.

Answer:

b. Complex II

Explanation:

The electron transport chain is a sequential series of proteins located in the inner membrane of the mitochondria that act to transfer electrons from different members of the transport chain in a series of redox reactions, which is coupled to the movement of protons (H+) across the membrane. Complex I (also called NADH dehydrogenase or NADH- CoQ reductase) accepts electrons from NADH and passes them to Complex III (also known as coenzyme Q reductase), which also receives electrons from Complex II (succinate coenzyme Q reductase). Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q) accepts electrons from both complex I and complex II and transfer them to complex III. From complex III electrons pass to complex IV through cytochrome c oxidase and finally to molecular oxygen (O2, the final electron acceptor). In consequence, Complex I and Complex II are linked by different pathways to Complex III, thereby it is expected that Complex II remains unaffected by a mutation in Complex I.

kicyunya [14]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"You determine that you have only 3 copies left of an important DNA fragment, so you decide to amplify it. Using flanking primers, how many PCR cycles would you have to run to generate over one billion (10^9) copies of the fragment? "

Answer:

Approximately 29 cycles of PCR would be required.

Explanation:

As you may already know, PCR is a technique used in molecular biology that allows part of a DNA molecule to be recycled into millions of copies.

PCR allows this replication to be done through cycles. Each PCR cycle lasts about 2 minutes and allows the DNA molecule to undergo the separation of the strands, the binding of the primers and the synthesis of new DNA strands through DNA polymerase. This cycle is usually repeated 32 times, but this number may change depending on the number of copies the researcher thinks is necessary.

In this case, if a researcher wants 10 ^ 9 copies of DNA, he must do the following calculation to find the number of PCR cycles needed:

32 ^ x = 10 ^ 9

x = 28.3 = approximately 29 cycles.
