Extra - The Electron Transport Chain in Prokaryotes

In prokaryotes, the electron transport chain (ETC) is located within the plasma membrane, where it facilitates the transfer of electrons and generates a proton gradient for ATP synthesis.

What is Decoupling Oxidative Phosphorylation and how does it create heat?

Oxidative phosphorylation uncoupling refers to the process where the energy generated from substrate oxidation in mitochondria is released as heat instead of being used to produce ATP, due to the leakage of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane independently of ATP synthase.

Extra - Can variation at a molecular level effect an organisms fitness?

Yes, variation in the number of molecules, particularly at the genetic level, can indeed affect selective advantage, as this variation can lead to different traits, some of which may be advantageous for survival and reproduction, thus influencing the process of natural selection.
