To which substance does ferredoxin transfer an electron?
Sonbull [250]

The right answer is NADP+.

Ferredoxin is an iron-sulfur protein that effects electron transfer in a large number of redox reactions in cell metabolism through Fe-S clusters whose iron cations oscillate between +2 (ferrous) oxidation states. and +3 (ferric). The first protein of this type was isolated in 1962 from the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium pasteurianum. A chloroplast-specific ferredoxin is involved in the cyclic and noncyclic photophosphorylation reactions of photosynthesis. In non-cyclic photophosphorylation, ferredoxin is the ultimate electron acceptor and reduces NADP + under the action of ferredoxin-NADP + reductase (EC 1.18.1.2) with FAD and a flavin group as cofactors:

2 ferredoxin- [Fe (2+) Fe (3+) S2 (-2)] + NADP (+) + H (+) ==> 2 ferredoxin- [Fe3 (+2) S2 (-2)] + NADPH .

Gas makes things buoyant, why ? And what are ways that this could be useful?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Gas makes things buoyant by making the volume of an object lighter than the surrounding fluid it is trying to displace.

Gas Buoyancy is useful in the following ways;

• Airships

• Steel ships and

• All floating and flying vessels

Explanation:

Buoyancy is the tendency of an object to float in a fluid such as air or water. It is a phenomenon that was theorized by the mathematician, Archimedes known as the Archimedes Principle.

It states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces.

The principle explains the reason why objects float and fly.

So, when an object is immersed in a fluid, it can float due to the upward force exerted by the fluid on the object. But for this to happen, the object has to weigh less than the fluid it is displacing.

This is where the use of a gas comes into play.

Because the object may be heavier than the surrounding fluid it is trying to displace, it is filled with a large amount of gas (usually hydrogen and/or helium) which is lighter. This makes the volume of the gas and the object put together lighter than that of the surrounding air.

This is what causes objects to float or fly
