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

Andrews [41]3 years ago
4 0

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.

Distinguish the various types of landforms formed by wind and how these landforms are created
svp [43]

One type of landform formed by wind would be sanddunes. This is the only landform I can think of formed by wind. The wind blows the sand along so that it builds up into a dune perhaps when it hits an obstacle like a small rocky spur and whole deserts can be converted into dunes.

Defecation depends on
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: the correct answer is d. all of the above must happen for defecation to occur.

Explanation:

In response to the distention of the rectal wall, the receptors send sensory nerve impulses to the sacral spinal cord. Motor impulses from the cord travel along parasympathetic nerves back to the descending colon, sigmoid colon, rectum, and anus. The resulting contraction of the longitudinal rectal muscles shortens the rectum, thereby increasing the pressure within it. This then opens the internal sphincter.

You are working in an emergency care center. a person comes in dehydrated and the doctor orders a hypertonic solution. explain w
andrezito [222]
Dehydration is the loss of too much water in our body  It can be categorized into three types: isotonic, hypotonic and hypertonic. Isotonic dehydration is the most common, which pertains to equal concentrations of the extracellular and intracellular fluids. In this type of dehydration, about same amount of electrolytes and water are ;pst from the body. Hypertonic dehydration is more serious and a very risky IV fluid to administer. This type of dehydration occurs when more electrolytes are lost than water from the body. So, there must be an intake of a fluid more concentrated in electrolytes so that it will cause the water from inside the cells to be attracted to the extracellular fluid. The last type of dehydration, hypotonic dehydration, is the opposite of hypertonic. This is when more of water is lost than electrolytes. So, the fluid to be administered is less concentrated relative to the fluid inside the cells.
