ATP concentration should be greater in cells treated with DNP because more oxidation of glucose is correlated with increased ATP synthesis.

Dinitrophenol (DNP) is a chemical that acts as an uncoupling agent, making the inner mitochondrial membrane leaky to protons.

More glucose gets broken down in DNP-treated cells. This means that the rate of glucose oxidation increases in the presence of DNP. Dinitrophenol disrupts the H+ gradient reducing ATP synthesis. Under these conditions, much of our food that we eat could not be used for ATP synthesis are we lose weight.

DNP allows hydrogen protons to cross the membrane freely. Therefore there is no true proton gradient and while ATP production can still occur (some hydrogens can still go through ATP synthase), it will be at a much lower rate and much less efficient.

RideAnS [48]
<span>Sedimentation - uses solutions of lower specific gravity than the organisms, which concentrated in the sediment. This technique is recommended for general diagnostic laboratories because it is easy to perform and less prone to technical errors.

Flotation - this technique uses solutions of higher specific gravity than the parasitic organisms so the organisms float and the debris sinks producing a cleaner material while the disadvantage is that walls of cysts and eggs collapse that may blocking its identification.<span>

charle [14.2K]
<span>The appropriate response is A. Lamarck is best known for his Theory of Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics, first exhibited in 1801. In the event that a life form changes amid life with a specific end goal to adjust to its condition, those progressions are passed on to its posterity.</span>

Burka [1]

When an earthquake occurs energy is transferred, from where the rocks break, and travels throughout the world. The bigger the quake the further from the epicentre the waves will travel. There are two types of earthquake wave generated during an earth quake. They carry energy away from the earthquake epicentre.
