Answer:

The correct answer is option A, that is, cytochrome c oxidase.

Explanation:

A sequence of complexes, which conduct electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors through redox reactions, that is, both oxidation and reduction reactions taking place simultaneously is termed as the electron transport chain. This conduction of electrons is further combined with the mediation of protons across a membrane.  

Four membrane-bound complexes are present within the mitochondria, of these in complex IV or cytochrome c oxidase, the withdrawal of 4 electrons takes place from 4 molecules of cytochrome c, and is mediated towards the molecular oxygen, which further gives rise to 2 molecules of water. During the process, 8 H+ are withdrawn from the mitochondrial matrix, which contributes to the proton gradient.

hodyreva [135]
<span>Parents can pass on chromosomes to their children that are different than their own when the new gene combinations are created by crossing over. The exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes is known as crossing over which occurs in meiosis. When homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange different segments of the genetic material. As the result, a new combination of genes will be formed. If there was not crossing over, all genes on a chromosome would be inherited together.</span>

What type of weathering can be considered the "rusting" of rock?
In-s [12.5K]
Hello,

Chemical weathering can be considered by the "rusting of rock". 

Weathering can be described of the breaking down of rocks and other materials on the Earth's surface. There are three types of weathering: mechanical, chemical, and biological. Mechanical weathering is the type of weathering in which rock is physically broken into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering is the type  of weathering in which chemical changes break down rock. Biological weathering is the type of weathering in which animal, plant, and microbes means weaken and or disintegrate rock.
