Summary Introduction
To review:
The consequences of experiment in figure 9.9 in the presence of antimycin A drug.
Introduction:
Figure shows an experiment, which was performed to prove that a proton concentration gradient drove formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the chloroplasts. Chemiosmosis occurs after electron transport chain (ETC) occurs inside mitochondria, in which production of ATP takes place by influx of protons back into the matrix of mitochondria.
The antimycin A drug is known to block electron transport in the chloroplasts and mitochondria.

In this question, I'd like you to think about what would happen if we applied an herbicide that prevented plant growth by inhibiting some of the pieces in your diagram above. For example, if we applied an herbicide to our plants and it affected the ability of Photosystem II to work, it would prevent he production of oxygen. Let's say we apply an herbicide to our plants and it affects the function of ATP synthase. What product would be inhibited? Group of answer choices ATP NADPH G3P Oxygenarrow_forward

- In an experiment, mitochondria were suspended in a buffered medium. The O2 electrode was used to monitor 0, consumption and assayed for the presence of ATP. Figure 3 shows the respiratory control by following the oxygen utilization (solid line) and ATP synthesis (discontinuous line) in the isolated mitochondria with additions of succinate, ADP, orthophosphate, oligomycin and dinitrophenol (DNP).

In the final step, electrons from cytochrome c to O2 reducing it to H2O in complex IV, and four protons are transported from the intermembrane space to the matrix. b. In the first step, electrons from FADH2 are transferred in complex II to ubiquinone, which does not transport any proton across the inner mitochondrion membrane. c. In the second step, complex III transfers the electrons from ubiquinone to cytochrome c, and four protons are transported from the matrix to the intermembrane space. d. The complete oxidation of FADH2 causes transfer of 6 protons and yields two ATP.arrow_forward
