In 1925, david keilin used a simple spectroscope to observe the characteristic absorption bands of the cytochromes that participate in the electron-transport chain in mitochondria. a spectroscope passes a very bright light through the sample of interest and then through a prism to display the spectrum from red to blue. if molecules in the sample absorb light of particular wavelengths, dark bands will interrupt the colors of the rainbow. his key discovery was that the absorption bands disappeared when oxygen was introduced and then reappeared when the samples became anoxic. subsequent findings demonstrated that different cytochromes absorb light of different frequencies. when light of a characteristic wavelength shines on a mitochondrial sample, the amount of light absorbed is proportional to the amount of a particular cytochrome present in its reduced form. thus, spectrophotometric methods can be used to measure how the amounts of reduced cytochromes change over time in response to various treatments. if isolated mitochondria are incubated with a source of electrons such as succinate, but without oxygen, electrons enter the respiratory chain, reducing each of the electron carriers almost completely. when oxygen is then introduced, the carriers oxidize at different rates, as can be seen from the decline in the amount of reduced cytochrome (see figure q14-67). note that cytochromes a1 and a3 cannot be distinguished and thus are listed as cytochrome (a1 + a3).how does this result allow you to order the electron carriers in the respiratory chain? what is their order?

Ihave made a synthetic cell by placing a solution that is 10% sodium chloride inside a semipermeable membrane through which water can pass but not sodium chloride. if i place this cell into a solution that is 20% sodium chloride what will happen to the size of the cell? will it increase, decrease, or stay the same in size?
