The concentration gradient is what makes the intramembrane proteins work. If there is no gradient, or in other words, the concentration is the same outside and inside the thylakoids, the ATP synthase would not be able to produce any ATP. So, the correct answer is: "<span>B. The chloroplasts would be unable to generate ATP."</span>
Competition is one of the many types relationships in the ecosystem. It is an oppositional relationship because unlike in symbiotic relationships, the organisms do not peacefully coexist. Using the given information above, we can deduce that the two fungi compete with one another in terms of the resources plus the habitat.
The correct answer is C. During the day, the water absorbs the sun's rays, and as a result, the ocean warms up. This process takes longer than land, which is why the beach sand is hotter than the water in the beginning of the day. However, at night, the ocean slowly releases the heat, while the beach sand releases it faster. This means the ocean maintains a more stable temperature than the beach, and also explains why the areas of land near the oceans have a more stable temperature (warmer winters, cooler summers) than inland areas.
