Water serves as an electron source in the electron transport process of photosynthesis. The electron is extracted from water by using solar energy.
What is the electron transport chain's source of energy?
The electron transport chain uses the energy released by oxygen and reduced compound reactions such as cytochrome c and (indirectly) NADH and FADH2 to pump protons into the intermembranous space, producing the electrochemical gradient over the inner mitochondrial membrane.
In photosynthesis, water is split to produce electrons in the presence of sunlight, a process known as the photolysis of water. The electrons are finally transferred to NADP+ by the chloroplast electron transport chain, where they are reduced to NADPH.
Therefore, In aerobic respiration, electrons from NADH and FADH2 are transferred to oxygen by the mitochondrial electron transport chain to reduce oxygen in the water.

Answer:
Fatty acids are long chain carboxylic acids, they contain the carboxyl, COOH, functional group. The general formula for a fatty acid is R-COOH where R represents a long hydrocarbon chain. If the hydrocarbon chain, R, contains only single bonds between the carbon atoms, the fatty acid is said to be saturated.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
The unequal distribution of ions inside and outside of the cell makes the membrane potential of the cell. The potential is important for the conduction of the impulse and generation of the action potential.
The resting membrane potential of the nerve impulse is maintained by the presence of large potassium ions inside the cell. The resting membrane potential is -70mV. The depolarization of the membrane occurs due to influx of the sodium ions.
Thus, the answer is true.
In an ecosystem the component energy is not recycled
