The rest of the group agrees with your conclusion that Dr. Tamm was likely exposed to a membrane uncoupling agent. Uncoupling ag
ents allow protons to cross the inner membrane of the mitochondria, down their concentration gradient, without passing through ATP synthase. Consider that each respiring cell has a need for a certain amount of ATP, but in the presence of a membrane uncoupling agent, the proton gradient that is generated by the ETC is being partially dissipated without any ATP being made. How do you think the activity of other metabolic pathways might change in response
The activity of other metabolic pathways also change in response to the proton which enters mitochondria without passing through ATP synthase because ATP synthase is responsible for the production of ATP molecules from proton. If this ATP is not produced no further reactions occurs in the cell. This ATP is used by the cells in various activities so if the proton does not pass through ATP synthase then no energy in the form of ATP is present for other metabolic pathways of the cells.
Explanation: DNA is a feature people have, as well as characters. You may look like your mother or father... But your features is what makes you look a certain way.
Ang bawat indibidwal ay dapat na binuo at ang mga pagbabago ay nangyayari sa kanyang hugis at istraktura sa pagdaan ng oras. Sa katawan ng organismo, ang mga cell ay patuloy na nahahati na responsable para sa pagtaas ng laki ng isang indibidwal. Sa ilang mga punto ang laki ng hihinto at ang mga bahagi ng reproductive parehong lalaki at babae indibidwal ay matured at gumana sa buong kakayahan at gumagawa ng isa pang organismo dahil sa pagsasanib ng kanilang mga sex cell.
