What explains the observation that FADH2 oxidation yields one less ATP than NADH oxidation by the Electron Transport System

Chemistry

Allisa [31]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Check explanation

Explanation:

During the Electron Transport System occur in the mitochondrial membrane, oxygen in this reaction is been reduced to water and ATPs are being produced.

The quinone form or the oxidized form of Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide(FAD) is the FADH2. While Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is the acronym for NADH. NADH is a good donating substance/agent.

It has been observed that FADH2 produce two(2) ATP while NADH produces three(3) ATP. The reason for this observation is that the production of electron in the FADH2 is at the lower enegy level. Because of this it can not transfer its electron to the first complex .

While;

NADH is at the higher energy level and it can directly transfer its electron to the first complex.

We know from the relative amounts of 16O and 18O that global temperatures and global climate have changed over time. Why is it i
Andru [333]

Answer:

In order to take steps by humans for controlling the change in climate.

Explanation:

It is important that scientist find out the change which occurs in the climate with the passage of time by performing experiments and also repeat the experiments in order to verify their findings. Due to these experiments, scientists also find out the reasons behind of climate change which enable us to take steps in preventing the change that occurs in the environment. it is also important for scientists to be able to explain how they know that climate has changed over time in order to explain that he is not assuming or making predictions, he has to provide evidence for his statement which is only be possible through experiments.

emelie is working on a science project. her task is to answer the question does rogooti a hair cream sold on tv affect the speed
joja [24]

Answer:

This question is incomplete and unclear; the complete question including the missing part is:

Emelie is working on a science project. Her task is to answer the question:

"Does Rogooti (a hair cream sold on TV) affect the speed of hair growth

(in length)". Her family is willing to volunteer for the experiment. Identify the control group (CG) and the independent and dependent variables.

ANSWER:

Independent variable: Rogooti hair cream

Dependent variable: Speed of hair growth/length

Control group: Family members that do not use the Rogooti hair cream

Explanation:

In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that the experimenter changes or manipulates in order to bring about a measurable response. In this case, the ROGOOTI HAIR CREAM is the independent variable.

Dependent variable refers to the variable that is measured or the variable that responds to the change made to the independent variable. In this case, the dependent variable is SPEED AT WHICH HAIR GROWS (IN LENGTH).

Control group in an experiment is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment. In this case, the experimental treatment is the Rogooti hair cream, hence, the control group will be the VOLUNTEER FAMILY MEMBERS THAT DOES NOT RECEIVE THE ROGOOTI HAIR CREAM ON THEIR HAIR.

Two containers hold the same radioactive isotope. Container A contains 1000 atoms, and container B contains 500 atoms. which con
enyata [817]

Answer:

The rate of decay of atoms in container A is greater than the rate of decay of atoms in container B.

Explanation:

From the question,

Container A contains 1000 atoms

Container B contains 500 atoms

<u>The rate of decay of atoms in container A is greater than the rate of decay of atoms in container B.</u>

The reason for such is due to the difference in the concentration of the isotopes. Container A which contains higher number of atoms will have the more changes of the release of the neutron as the changes of the hitting and splitting increases as the density of the atoms increases.

<u>Thus, the atoms in the container A will therefore decay faster than the atoms in the container B. </u>

Which monatomic ions would you expect radium (z = 88) and selenium (z = 34) to form?
makvit [3.9K]

1) Radium will form Ra²⁺ ions, because it is metal with two valence electrons (7s²) and it will lost two electrons to have electric configuration like noble gas radon (Z=86).

Electroic configuration of radium atom:

₈₈Ra 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶4d¹⁰4f¹⁴5s²5p⁶5d¹⁰6s²6p⁶7s².

2) Selenium wil form Se²⁻ ions, because it is nonmetal and it has six valence electrons (4s²4p⁴), it will gain two electrons to have electron configuration like noble gas krypton (Z=36).

Electronic configuration of selenium atom: ₃₄Se 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁴.
