Nuclei in somatic cells of the freshwater alga Draparnaldia plumosa have 13 chromosomes. In the closely related species Draparna

ldia acuta, nuclei in somatic cells have 26 chromosomes.
Which of the following is correct:
a. Gametes of Draparnaldia acuta should contain 13 chromosomes.
b. Draparnaldia plumosa zygotes contain 26 chromosomes; meiosis should occur after fertilization.
c. Draparnaldia acuta is a diploid organism; the expected n number for its haploid gametes is 13.
d. Draparnaldia plumosa is a monoploid organism with n = 13.

Answer:

b. <em>Draparnaldia plumosa</em> zygotes contain 26 chromosomes; meiosis should occur after fertilization.

Explanation:

<em>Draparnaldia plumosa </em>is a freshwater green algae. The thallus of this species is haploid. Each cell of the thallus has 13 chromosomes in its nucleus. During sexual reproduction thallus forms gametes through mitosis. After fertilization between isogametes, a diploid zygote is formed having 26 chromosomes. Zygote undergoes meiosis to form haploid thallus.

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers that donate their electrons to the electron transport chain. The electrons ultimately
maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers of the electron transport chain. NADH gives up its electrons starting from Complex I, which has a higher energy level compared to other complexes. Energy is given off to pump protons across the membrane by the time electrons are transferred to ComplexIII. More electrons are pumped across the membrane as electrons move to Complex IV. Because NADH commenced giving up its electrons from Complex I (higher energy level complex), more protons are pumped across the membrane gradient, which enables ATP synthase with more power to produce 3ATP molecules per NADH molecule.

On the other hand, 2 molecules of ATP are generated by FADH2 because it starts by giving up its electrons to ComplexII. It missed a chance to pump protons across the membrane when it passed Complex I. By the time the electrons reach Complex IV, less protons have been pumped. The lesser the protons to power ATP synthase, the lesser the ATP molecules produced.

Is DNP and cyanide an inhibitor of cellular respiration?
DENIUS [597]

Answer: Yes.

Explanation:

DNP and cyanide are both cellular respiration inhibitor.

Cyanide is a neurotoxin that can prevent cellular respiration by it's inactivation activity on mitochondria enzymes called cytochrome oxidase.

DNP (2,4-Dinitrophenol is a chemical that inhibit cellular respiration. It help to shuttle proton across cell membranes of living cells by spreading the proton along along the mitochondria and collapsing the force that produced energy for the cell activities.
