-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

ATP production: reduced

Proton gradient: Dissipated

pH of the various mitochondrial compartments: pH of matrix will be reduced while that of the intermembrane space will be increased.

Explanation:

During oxidation of FADH2 and NADH, electrons are transferred through electron transport chain to the terminal electron acceptor, molecular oxygen. Electron transfer by the electrons carriers of electron transport chain is accompanied by the pumping of protons from matrix to the intermembrane space and generation of the proton concentration gradient. The proton concentration gradient drives ATP synthesis.

According to the given information, DNP shuttles protons from the intermembrane space into the matrix and thereby, lowers down the pH of the matrix making it more acidic with respect to intermembrane space. This would dissipate the proton concentration gradient and there will be reduced or no ATP production in the absence of the driving force.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

They are stimulated by an antigen.

Explanation:

Natural killer cells are cytotoxic cells that help our body in innate immune response. These are an critical and important component of the innate immune system of our body. These natural killer cells provide a rapid response towards the virus infected cells. These cells have capability to detect MHC that are present on the infected cells. Natural killer cells do not require activation for killing those cells which are missing MHC I. Due to this feature, they are named as the Natural killer cells. These cells can directly induce the death of tumor cells and play an important role in immunosurveillance.
