Which of the following are part of the chemiosmotic coupling model? Protons are pumped out of the mitochondrial matrix into the
Lina20 [59]

The correct answer is: Protons are pumped out of the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space

Chemiosmosis can be described as movement of ions across a selectively permeable membrane, down their electrochemical gradient. It occurs during the cellular respiration within mitochondria and it is involved in ATP synthesis (oxidative phosphorylation via ATP synthase).

Electrons from electron carriers (NADH and FADH) donate electrons to the electron transport chain and that causes changes in protein complexes of electron transport chain. As a consequence, protein complexes pump H+ across a selectively permeable cell membrane from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space of mitochondria.  

H+ can only get back and pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane with the help of ATP synthase (down their electrochemical gradient). ATP synthase turned by the force of the H+ diffusing through it forms ATP by adding a phosphate to ADP.

Ovules produced by an entirely green plant contain a rare mutation in a nuclear gene that is involved in chlorophyll synthesis,
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The plant will produce less chlorophyll

Explanation:

The plant still has a functional allele provided by the paternal gamete, thereby the leaves have this enzyme required for chlorophyll biosynthesis. In consequence, the plant can produce chlorophyll pigment but in less quantity, since it has only a functional allele coding for a key enzyme involved in the chlorophyll pathway

kifflom [539]

Answer:

The normal range of blood glucose is 70–120 mg/dL. A person has a blood glucose level of 170 mg/dL. Based on your knowledge of the endocrine system and hormones, explain the likely cause for the person's condition.

It could be as a result of high sugar intake which increases the individual's blood glucose level

Explanation:

From the assertion above, it could be deduced that the individual pancrease is no more functioning hence; no control of blood glucose level. Furthermore, the continuous intake of sugar or food materials with high sugar content contributes excessively to increase the blood glucose level in the body.
