The involvement of atp in the nitrogenase complex is because atp is needed to: a. provide electrons. b. phosphorylate the enzyme. c. break the n2 triple bond. d. transfer electrons from ferredoxin. e. all are true.

c. break the N2 triple bond.  

Explanation:

In the general nitrogen reduction reaction (which occurs in the nitrogenase complex), ferredoxin acts as an electron donor to Fe-protein, which in turn hydrolyzes ATP and reduces MoFe-protein. By reducing MoFe-protein one can then reduce numerous (triple bonded) substrates although, under natural conditions, it reacts only to N2 and H +.

That is, ATP must be present in the reaction so that MoFe-protein can break the triple bond N2.

The binding and hydrolysis of ATP to Fe-protein causes a change in conformation of this protein which facilitates redox reactions. The enzymatic reduction of N2 by nitrogenase requires a large energy investment, although the exact changes in free energy are still unknown.

answer: land bridge theory. land bridge theory held that shifting portions of dry land explained the finding of identical species on different continents. plate tectonic theory eventually eliminated the land bridge theory.

if the type of the food available changes, then the frequency of beak types will change, because birds with beaks more suited to the available food will be more successful over time.
