Part D - The effect of gramicidin on oxidative phosphorylation When the protein gramicidin is integrated into a membrane, an H c

hannel forms and the membrane becomes very permeable to protons (H ions). If gramicidin is added to an actively respiring muscle cell, how would it affect the rates of electron transport, proton pumping, and ATP synthesis in oxidative phosphorylation

Answer:

The correct answer would be -

Remains the same: proton pumping rate, electron transport rate, rate of oxygen uptake.

Decreases or goes to zero: rate of ATP synthesis, size of protein gradient

Explanation:

An H+ channel forms and the membrane becomes very permeable to protons if the protein gramicidin is integrated into a membrane. If gramicidin is added to an actively respiring muscle cell, it will affect the in the following manner:

Remains the same:

proton pumping rate, electron transport rate, rate of oxygen uptake.

Decreases:

rate of ATP synthesis, size of protein gradient

None of these will show an increase due to the addition of gramicidin tlo actively respiring muscle cells.

Diffusion, Osmosis and Enzymes
Nana76 [90]

The given statements can be matched as following:

a)The diffusion of water from a high concentration to a low concentration  - Osmosis

b)Lowers the amount of energy needed to perform chemical reactions - Enzymes

c)When you breath O2 passes into your blood stream while CO2 passes out of your blood stream -Simple Diffusion

d)Involved with, but does not become a part of chemical reactions -Enzymes

e)Small molecules with no charge can move through semi-permeable membranes by this process- Simple Diffusion

Explanation:

a) Osmosis is generally defined as the process by which water is transported from a region of Higher concentration to the region of Lower concentration.

b) Enzymes are well known to reduce the amount of energy required or needed for a chemical reaction to take place.

c)The process by which oxygen passes through our blood stream and carbondioxide passes through the other is known as simple diffusion process.

d) Enzymes are ones that actively gets involved in the chemical reaction but they will never become a part of that chemical reaction.

e) Diffusion is the process by which very small molecules that carries no charge moves through semi permeable membrane.
