The valinomycin treatment caused a decrease in the activity of the mitochondria.
Explanation:
When valinomycin treatment was given, the rate of ATP production is reduced in the cells treated. Since mitochondria are involved in ATP synthesis, it clearly shows that valinomycin inhibits mitochondrial action.
Valinomycin being a selective K+ ionophore, it can transfer potassium ions through selective lipid membranes. This can cause potassium effux in organelles like mitochondria leading to marked loss of potential of mitochondrial membrane and apoptosis in cells.
The effux of K+ ions forms a complex with valinomycin and slows down the mitochondrial part of ATP synthesis by reducing the proton-motive force, but does not block any oxygen electron transfer

The DNA undergoes two simplified process I becoming a protein; transcription and translation. Transcription involves the production of a complimentary mRNA strand in the nucleus. The double stranded DNA unzips enzymatically, next DNA polymerase binds to the unzipped DNA and binds complementary nucleotides from the 3' end to the 5' end. This newly formed mRNA strand then moves out of the nucleus where it binds with a ribosome, here complimentary tRNA molecules bind to the mRNA strand thus forming a primary structure protein.

Answer:
<em>The correct options are:</em>
<em>There are million of spores that are made by a single plant to help keep its population.</em>
<em>Spores can live for a long time without maturing into an adult plant.</em>
Explanation:
Spores can be described as a means of reproduction in plants like the gymnosperms.
There are millions of spores produced by a single plant so that the chances of their dispersal and maturing into new plants is maximum.
Spores also have the capability to stay dormant until the conditions become favorable for the growth of a plant from the spore.
Another adaptation of spores is that they are light weight so that they can easily be carried away by the wind.
