Answer: A cell is defined as the smallest functional units of the body

Explanation:

These cells are grouped together to form tissues, each of which has a specialised function, example blood, muscles, bone. Different tissues are grouped together to form organs with a special function. For example heart is an organ made up of muscles tissue, connective tissue, nervous tissue and vascular tissue. These tissues work in a coordinated manner and enable the heart to carry out the broader function of pumping blood continuously.

While organs are grouped together to form systems, each of which performs a particular function that maintains the body Internal environment and contribute to the health of the individual. For example the digestive system is responsible for taking in, digesting and absorbing food which involves a number of organs, including the stomach and intestines.

Therefore the statement that 'organs are large structures that keeps us alive" is a correct claim.

erma4kov [3.2K]

For every one NADH molecule oxidized at complex I, 10 HYDROGEN IONS are pumped across all of the complexes from the mitochondrial matrix to the inner membrane space

Cellular respiration has three main stages: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

<h3>What is Oxidative phosphorylation ?</h3>

During oxidative phosphorylation, the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) helps to carry electrons from one reaction to another across a series of molecular complexes.

  • The electron transport chain of oxidative phosphorylation is coupled to the generation of an electrochemical proton (H+) gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane.
  • Subsequently, this proton H+ gradient is then used to produce ATP by an ATP synthetase.

Is energy lost in a ecosystem as it moves from producers to consumers
Ivenika [448]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one tropic level are consumed by organisms from the next level. Trophic level transfer efficiency measures the amount of energy that is transferred between trophic levels </h2>
