Answer:

The correct option will be option C.

Explanation:

2,4-Dinitrophenol or DNP is a protonophore molecule which can leak the protons and leads to affect the production of ATP in the mitochondria.

DNP is the best agent known for uncoupling the oxidative phosphorylation as it uncouples the phosphorylation of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) from ATP synthase.   It leads to the low production of the ATP during oxidative phosphorylation and most of the energy is converted to heat.  It does not effect the electron transport chain, it continues.

Thus, option C is the correct answer.

The following statements are all true regarding amino acids and proteins. Select which statements are unique to proteins alone a
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The statement true of all proteins, carbohydrates and fats is that human body is able to synthesize them all.

The statement unique to proteins is that proteins are made up of instructions according to DNA.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates, Proteins and fats are macronutrients and required by body in larger amounts. All these macromolecules are made up of building blocks like proteins are from amino acids, carbohydrates from monosaccharides and fats from triglycerides. Human body can also synthesize these macronutrients. Like proteins can be synthesized by central dogma. Glucose can be synthesized by gluconeogenesis from glycogen and fats can be synthesized from acetyl-CoA and NADPH.

The proteins are made up by a process known as central dogma. The first step of central dogma is replication in which a replicated copy of DNA is produced in a cell. The second step is transcription for the production of messenger RNA from DNA. At last mRNA is used for the production of proteins on ribosomes.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) block the actions of the COX enzymes and their production of eicosanoids from ___
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Arachidonic acids

Explanation:

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are drugs used due to their analgesic, anti-inflammatory effects.

It inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme that takes part in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins (PGs) and thromboxane (TX) and the production of eicosanoids.

Eicosanoids are made by the enzymatic or non-enzymatic oxidation of arachidonic acid or from other polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that are close to arachidonic acid which are 20 carbon units in length.

They are important cell signaling molecules that inhibit inflammation, allergy, fever,regulate abortion of pregnancy and normal childbirth, regulating cell growth.
