Remains the same: proton pumping rate, electron transport rate, rate of oxygen uptake
Decreases or goes to zero: Rate of ATP synthesis, size of the proton gradient
<span>(Gramicidin causes membranes to become very leaky to protons, so that a proton gradient cannot be maintained and ATP synthesis stops. However, the leakiness of the membrane has no effect on the ability of electron transport to pump protons. Thus, the rates of proton pumping, electron transport, and oxygen uptake remain unchanged.)</span>
Blood<span> is a heterogeneous </span>mixture<span> because the </span>blood<span> cells are physically separate from the </span>blood<span> plasma. The cells have different properties than the plasma. The cells can be separated from the plasma by centrifuging, which is a physical change. Since it can be separated mechanically, it is not a chemical compound</span>
You are correct the answer is c
