A mutation that involves the permeability of the inner mitochondrial membrane to protons (H+) will affect the amount of ATP. If mutant cells can survive, then they will need more energy to create a suitable gradient.

Cellular respiration is a series of metabolic reactions by which aerobic cells can generate energy in the form of ATP by using the chemical energy stored in the foods.

Cellular respiration can be divided into three sequential stages: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle (also called the acid citric cycle) and oxidative phosphorylation.

During oxidative phosphorylation, the transport of electrons across the inner mitochondrial membrane is coupled to the generation of an electrochemical proton (H+) gradient, which is then used to generate ATP by means of a protein complex known as ATP synthase.

*all higher organisms such as mammals have this type of respiration.

Anaerobic Respiration

*Oxygen absent

Why are methane hydrates so difficult to extract from the seafloor?
AlexFokin [52]

The warmer the water, the larger the water depths must be to form the hydrate. Deep inside he sea floor, however, the temperature is too high for the formation of methane hydrates because of the Earth's internal heat. Oxidation Many bacteria use methane to provide energy for their metabolism.

Why does putting your name on a health behavior contract indicate your commitment to the contract?
dimulka [17.4K]
Because it is written. A popular tool used for motivation and commitment is the use of written contracts and often does not even need to be as lengthy as a contract. A slip of paper or even another writing surface has been shown to significantly increase the likelihood of committing to that action. 

There is also premeditation involved when signing a contract or writing on a piece of paper. An individual has read and recognized the written words and then signed it according to a commitment to that act. As such there is a significant amount of thought put into the over procedure, and thus increases again the likelihood of an individual to be committed to completing those actions.

Aside from all the factors of motivation, the signing demonstrates commitment to the contract because that is fairly universally understood to be the way in which people recognize and formally commit to contracts. Whatever the context of the action, whether signing papers to buy a house or for a new job, the signing of the contract is the commitment of the individuals involved to complete the requirements within the contract. Although in this instance the healthier behavior most directly affects the individual who signs the paper.
