A motorcycle travel at 6.0 m/s. After 3.0 second, the motorcycle travel at 15.0 m/s. Which of the following was the average acce

Lerok [7]

Hello!

$\large\boxed{a = 3m/s^{2}}$

Use the following equation to solve for the average acceleration of the motorcycle:

$a = \frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t}$

Plug in the given final, initial velocities, and the time:

$a = \frac{15-6}{3}\\\\a = \frac{9}{3}\\\\a = 3m/s^{2}$

Cytochromes are critical participants in the electron transport chains used in photosynthesis and cellular respiration. How do c

goblinko [34]

Answer:

4) Each cytochrome has an iron‑containing heme group that accepts electrons and then donates the electrons to a more electronegative substance.

Explanation:

The cytochromes are proteins that contain heme prosthetic groups. Cytochromes undergo oxidation and reduction through loss or gain of a single electron by the iron atom in the heme of the cytochrome:

$Cytochrome-Fe²⁺ ⇄ cytochrome-Fe³⁺-e⁻$

The reduced form of ubiquinone (QH₂), an extraordinarily mobile transporter, transfers electrons to cytochrome reductase, a complex that contains cytochromes b and c₁, and a Fe-S center. This second complex reduces cytochrome c, a water-soluble membrane peripheral protein. Cytochrome c, like ubiquinone (Q), is a mobile electron transporter, which is transferred to cytochrome oxidase. This third complex contains the cytochromes a, a₃ and two copper ions. Heme iron and a copper ion of this oxidase transfer electrons to O₂, as the last acceptor, to form water.

Each transporter "downstream" is more electronegative than its neighbor "upstream"; oxygen is located in the inferior part of the chain. Thus, the electrons fall in an energetic gradient in the electron chain transport to a more stable localization in the electronegative oxygen atom.
