Answer:

Oxidative phosphorylation that generates most of the ATP is blocked, and oxygen cannot accept the electrons from NADH.

Explanation: Sorry this is late and may be wrong but it is my best guess and here is why:

Potassium cyanide blocks the ETC where the majority of ATP is produced. The ETC is a oxidative phosphorylation process where oxygen is needed as the final electron acceptor of NADH.

The first answer can be eleminated because oxidative phosphorylation produces the most ATP.

The second answer can be eleminated because chemiosmosis does not generate ALL the ATP during cellular respiration, but does produce most of it. Still they worded it as an "all or nothing" type of question so I don't think it is correct.

The fourth answer may not be correct because NAD does not pass on an electron to NADH. Instead, NADH donstes electrons to the ETC and is then turned into NAD. So the process listed is technically backwords.

Sorry I can't be sure about the answer but this is how I broke it down.

Dear Sarah.

Firstly, I am very happy to know that you have decided to start a study schedule for your literature course in Colonial Latin America, I believe that you will gain great knowledge and that this will be very important for your academic career.

Because of the importance of this study, I decided to analyze your study methods and I fear that they are not efficient and that you will lose time and do not absorb the concepts really necessary for you.

Your study method is based on memorizing concepts and quotes and I believe that you should not rely on it to study, as our memory is relative and often does not last as long as necessary. So I decided to give you advice that I used during my study and that were extremely efficient.

My first advice is that you divide all the material that you have to study in small modules and establish an expert for the study of each one. Don't forget to put a rest time so that you don't get overwhelmed and start taking your readings automatically.

My second advice is that when you study each module, write summaries with the main parts and make mind maps that will be extremely necessary to make revisions.

My last and most important advice is that you make constant reviews and try to conceptualize and reason during this process, this will prevent you from memorizing, but introducing the concepts in your mind in order to understand them and not record them.

I am grateful that you will be successful if you follow these steps and I expect answers from you telling me the results.

Affectionately,

Caroline.

The letter A indicates the _____. A cross section of the eudicot root. Each letter marks a definite structure. Letter A marks th

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Letter A indicates the epidermis, which is the outer layer of the root.

Explanation:

The internal structure of the eudicot root consists of three concentrical layers: The epidermis, the cortex, and the central vascular cylinder.

The epidermis is the outer layer of the root. It covers the totality of the root surface, absorbs water and minerals from the soil, and protects the internal tissues.

The cortex occupies a big part of the root and its located under the epidermis. The most internal cell layer of the cortex is called endodermis.

The vascular cylinder is composed of vascular tissues -the xylem and the phloem- that is surrounded by one or more cell layers called pericycle. The xylem looks like a cross of big cells in the center, and the phloem occupies the spaces between the pericycle and the xylem.
