Kamila [148]

Answer:

The answer is 83.38%.

Explanation:

The probability of young children having blood levels that impair their neurological development is given as 60% in the question. To find the probability of at least 5 children out of 10 in a sample having said blood levels, we need to use the binomial probability.

n represents the total number of children in the sample so n = 10 and p is the probability of the children having blood levels causing the problem which is 60% so p = 0.6.

We want the probability of it being observed for 5 or more children and that is P(x\geq 5). If we subtract the P( x\leq 4) from 1, which is the probability of not observing the condition in 5 or more children, we will have the P(x\geq 5).

1 - P(x\leq 4) = 1 - pbinom(4, 10, 0.6) which are the probability range in the function, the sample size and the probability of observing the condition respectively.

The result is 1 - 0.1662 = 0.8338 which means that the probability that is asked is 83.38%.

I hope this answer helps.

The malate/aspartate shuttle: if inhibited, could lead to the accumulation of cytosolic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate within the ce
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:Recall that the glycolytic pathway generates NADH in the cytosol in the oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, and NAD+ must be regenerated for glycolysis to continue. How is cytosolic NADH reoxidized under aerobic conditions? NADH cannot simply pass into mitochondria for oxidation by the respiratory chain, because the inner mitochondrial membrane is impermeable to NADH and NAD+. The solution is that electrons from NADH, rather than NADH itself, are carried across the mitochondrial membrane. One of several means of introducing electrons from NADH into the electron transport chain is the glycerol 3-phosphate shuttle (Figure 18.37). The first step in this shuttle is the transfer of a pair of electrons from NADH to dihydroxyacetone phosphate, a glycolytic intermediate, to form glycerol 3-phosphate.This reaction is catalyzed by a glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase in the cytosol. Glycerol 3-phosphate is reoxidized to dihydroxyacetone phosphate on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane by a membrane-bound isozyme of glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. An electron pair from glycerol 3-phosphate is transferred to a FAD prosthetic group in this enzyme to form FADH2. This reaction also regenerates dihydroxyacetone phosphate.

dlinn [17]

Answer:

Where do each of these reactions take place

- <u>Photosynthesis takes place inside the chloroplasts</u>

- <u>cellular respiration takes place in the cell's mitochondria</u>

Where do each of these three major steps take place (for eukaryotes)

- Glycolysis happens in the cytoplasm

- the Kreb's cycle takes place in the mitochondria

- the Electron transport chain occurs in the thylakoid membrane.
