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.

Many scientists worry that the influence humans have on the biogeochemical and hydrologic cycles will cause lasting damage to Ea
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Driving a car, smoking, burning of woods for heating purpose and cooking food.

Explanation:

Driving a car, smoking, burning of woods for heating purpose and cooking food are the activities that are performed in our home daily. These activities greatly affected the biogeochemical and hydrologic cycles by increasing the concentration of carbondioxide gas in the atmosphere. Burning of fossil fuels in the car engine and burning of woods releases carbondioxide gas that causes air pollution. The use of electric cars and electric heater can decrease the impact on these biogeochemical and hydrologic cycles.

The model illustrates the relationship between photosynthesis and aerobic cellular respiration. Write balanced chemical equation
Gennadij [26K]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The balanced chemical equation showing relationship between photosynthesis and aerobic respiration are  </em>

<em>6H_2 O+6CO_2+sunlight \rightarrow 6O_2+C_6  H_12 O_6</em>

<em>6O_2 + C_6 H_1_2 O_6 \rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2 O+ATP</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Photosynthesis is the basic process by which plants derive energy. </em>They require sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to perform photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide and water combine in the <em>presence of sunlight</em> to produce glucose and oxygen. Energy is obtained from this glucose.  

In aerobic respiration glucose combines with <em>oxygen and gets broken down into carbon dioxide, water and energy. This energy is in the form of ATP.  </em>
