Which process will be immediately inhibited if cytochrome c is unable to interact with cytochrome c oxidase

Biology
1 answer:
bonufazy [111]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Electron transfer to from cytochrome c to molecular Oxygen in the process of oxidative phosphorylation

Explanation:

Cytochrome c is a protein which is involved in the electron transport chain for the production of ATP molecules during then process of respiration. It a soluble protein found in the intermembrane space of the mitochondria. It receives electrons from ubiquinone at Complex III of the electron transport chain and transfers this electron to molecular oxygen through its interaction with complex IV or cytochrome c oxidase, reducing molecular oxygen to water.

If the interaction of cytochrome c with cytochrome c oxidase is inhibited, the process of elctron transfer to oxygen will be inhibited and, so ATP synthesis will cease.

Ultimately,  respiration will be inhibited resulting in death of the organism. For example, cyanide inhibits cytochrome c oxidase resulting in death of the organism poisoned with cyanide.

What happens to the actual image you see between the time you see it and it your brain registers it?
USPshnik [31]

Answer AND Explanation:

As light reflected from an external object enters the eye, it is refracted by the cornea, aqueous humour, the lens and vitreous humour so that an image is focused on the retina. The image is real, upside down and smaller than the object. The photoreceptor cells are stimulated by the reflected light and impulses are set off. The impulses are transmitted by neurons through the optic nerve to the optic region of the brain. The brain interprets the impulse as an upright impression of the object.
