Molecular oxygen (O2), which is required for the production of ATP by mitochondria, must pass through at least three membranes to get to the enzymes where it is used. O2 is also produced in chloroplasts and must pass through at least four membranes to be released from the plant. How does O2 reach mitochondria and escape chloroplasts?
A. Secondary active transport
B. Using endomembrane system vesicles
C. Passive diffusion
D. Primary active transport It undergoes a chemical reaction that binds it to other substances that are transported across the membranes
Homework Answers
Answer : C. Passive diffusion
Gases like oxygen can diffuse through the cell membranes easily from region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration.
Concentration of oxygen is high outside the cell compared to mitochondria so, oxygen diffuses into the mitochondria.
Concentration of oxygen is high in the chloroplasts compared to outside of the cell, so oxygen diffuses out of the chloroplast.

Q13 Cyanide is a deadly poison that attaches to cytochrome c oxidase, the last protein in the electron transport chain before the terminal electron acceptor. Based on your knowledge of the electron transport chain, which statement below best describes the action of cyanide on the body? A. Cyanide does not allow the Krebs cycle to be completed by blocking acetyl CoA from entering this cycle. This action shuts down the entire process of cellular metabolism. B. Cyanide does not allow...
