Answer:

B. A proton gradient drives the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate via ATP synthase.

Explanation:

Light reaction of photosynthesis includes the splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and electron transfer from PSII to PSI via an electron transport system. During the transfer of electron through cytochrome of the electron transport system, the proton concentration gradient is generated across thylakoids. The proton concentration gradient is harvested to drive ADP phosphorylation by the catalytic site of ATP synthase accompanied by downhill movement protons through its proton channels.

Simple problem my friend!

First we must replace X with -2,-1,0,1,2
then we plug in -2 in X. 8*-2 is -16 and adding 12 gives us a co ordinate of (-2,-4) now this is not enough so now we must do -1. 8*-1 is -8, + 12 gives us 4. so now our second co ordinate is (-1,4). i will do 1 more co ordinate and then you should be able to finish the problem by yourself :) we now plug in 0 to replace X. 8*0 is 0, easy and 0+12 is 12. so the third co ordinate is (0,12) when you have put all the dots on the graph be sure to draw a line through them and by the way, this is not a biology question lol, good luck!

The enzyme telomerase is part protein and part RNA. What would be the most likely effect of a large deletion in the gene that en
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: option A, B and D

Explanation:

The telomeres found at the terminal ends of eukaryotic chromosomes are long repetitive sequences that protects the DNA from being identify as a damage molecule to encourage fusion with other chromosomes. Since replication does not extend down to these 3' ends, the cell recruits the telomerase enzyme which is a ribonucleoprotein that helps to add telomeric repeats using its own RNA component as template to extend this end. Thus if mutation like a large deletion occurs in the gene encoding for this enzyme, the telomerase would not be able to associate correctly with the telomere, the catalytic center also encoding for its RNA polymerase would be altered and the enzymes will not be able to synthesize new telomeric repeats sequences

Would you describe cells as simple structures? Why or why not?

No, cells are very complex. They are composed of highly specialized organelles that each have different functions.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

As the diagram for the question is not given, lets answer the question generally.

Explanation:

Energy in a system is neither created nor destroyed. Yet, the energy can be changed from one form to another. If in the beginning, at a point a,  an object has a potential energy of 100 joules, then at point b the kinetic energy of the object will be subtracted from the total  100 joules of energy present in the beginning. This is because the potential energy will be being changed to the kinetic energy and no new energy will be created or destroyed.
