The three golden lions on a red background, symbolising England, occupy the first and fourth quarters. The Arms of Scotland, a red lion rearing on its hind legs inside a red border, are in the second quarter, and the Arms of Ireland's golden harp with silver strings on a blue background-are in the third quarter.
Once it is reduced to QH2, ubiquinone delivers its electrons to the next complex in the electron transport chain. Q receives the electrons derived from NADH from complex I and the electrons derived from FADH2 from complex II, including succinate dehydrogenase. This enzyme and FADH2 form a small complex that delivers electrons directly to the electron transport chain, bypassing the first complex.
In a semiconductor material, the flow of holes occurs in a direction opposite to the flow of electrons. Elemental semiconductors include antimony, arsenic, boron, carbon, germanium, selenium, silicon, sulfur, and tellurium. Silicon is the best-known of these, forming the basis of most integrated circuits (IC s).Common semiconductor compounds include gallium arsenide, indium antimonide, and the oxides of most metals.Of these, gallium arsenide (GaAs) is widely used in low-noise, high-gain, weak-signal amplifying devices.A semiconductor device can perform the function of a vacuum tube having hundreds of times its volume.ommon semiconductor compounds include gallium arsenide, indium antimonide, and the oxides of most metals.
