How many pairs of autosomal chromosomes does each person without chromosomal abnormalities have?

Which of the following does not participate in, nor is a component of, the electron transport chain? (Remember that molecules ca

Yanka [14]

Answer:

A) coenzyme A

Explanation:

The NADH and FADH₂ are the energy rich molecules which are formed in the processes like glycolysis, TCA cycle and the fatty acid oxidation as they contain pair of electrons which have very high transfer potential.

As a result of the energy produced when these molecules transfer their electrons to the oxygen , ATP is generated by a series of electron carriers which collectively is called electron transport chain (ETC).

The components of chain include Fe–S centers, Non-heme, FMN, coenzyme Q, and cytochromes . 

The energy derived from the transfer of electrons is used to pump the protons across mitochondrial membrane.

As a result, an electrochemical gradient is generated which results in some energy which is then harnessed by the ATP synthase to form ATP.

What is the change in internal energy for each of the following situations? 1. q-7.9 J out of the system and w 3.6 J done on the

adoni [48]

Answer:

A i. Internal energy ΔU = -4.3 J ii. Internal energy ΔU = -6.0 J B. The second system is lower in energy.

Explanation:

A. We know that the internal energy,ΔU = q + w where q = quantity of heat and w = work done on system.

1. In the above q = -7.9 J (the negative indicating heat loss by the system). w = 3.6 J (It is positive because work is done on the system). So, the internal energy for this system is ΔU₁ = q + w = -7.9J + 3.6J = -4.3 J

ii. From the question q = +1.5 J (the positive indicating heat into the system). w = -7.5 J (It is negative because work is done by the system). So, the internal energy for this system is ΔU₂ = q + w = +1.5J + (-7.5J) = +1.5J - 7.5J = - 6.0J

B. We know that ΔU = U₂ - U₁ where U₁ and U₂ are the initial and final internal energies of the system. Since for the systems above, the initial internal energies U₁ are the same, then we say U₁ = U. Let U₁ and U₂ now represent the final energies of both systems in A i and A ii above. So, we write ΔU₁ = U₁ - U and ΔU₂ = U₂ - U where ΔU₁ and ΔU₂ are the internal energy changes in A i and A ii respectively. Now from ΔU₁ = U₁ - U, U₁ = ΔU₁ + U and U₂ = ΔU₂ + U. Subtracting both equations U₁ - U₂ = ΔU₁ - ΔU₂

= -4.3J -(-6.0 J)= 1.7 J. Since U₁ - U₂ > 0 , U₂ < U₁ , so the second system's internal energy increase less and is lower in energy and is more stable.

How does the emission spectrum support the idea of quantized energy levels

ryzh [129]

Explanation:

Different atoms absorb and emit specific wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation and nothing in between. These absorption and emission spectra are actually used to identify atoms of elements in a substance. This phenomenon is explained by Bohr's theory of quantized energy levels in an atom – called orbital levels. When an electron 'jumps' from a lower to higher orbital level, it absorbs a specific wavelength of electromagnetic radiation specific to the ‘jump’. Vice versa, when an electron 'jumps' to a lower orbital level is emits an equivalent and specific wavelength of electromagnetic radiation.
