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.

Which of the following happens to large molecules during digestion?
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

large intestine

Explanation:

Through digestion, large food particles are converted into smaller components that can be readily absorbed into the bloodstream. Sucrose binds to the active site on sucrase, and this puts stress on the bond between the 2 sugars that make up sucrose. The bond breaks, releasing glucose and fructose.
