Pregunta 6
Pregunta
In the experiment of Racker and Stoeckenius, bacteriorhodopsin was oriented in such a way that it pumped H+ into a vesicle. Each vesicle actually contained many molecules of bacteriorhodopsin. How would the results have been affected if 50% of the bacteriorhodopsin molecules pumped H+into the vesicle and 50% pumped H+ out of the vesicles?
Respuesta
The same amount fo ATP would be made in the presence of light, and no ATP would be made in the dark.
More ATP would be made in the presence of light, and no ATP would be made in the dark.
No ATP would be made in the presence of light, and no ATP would be made in the dark
No ATP would be made in the presence of light, but some ATP would be made in the dark.
Some ATP would be made in both light and dark
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
Certain drugs act as ionophores that cause the mitochondrial membrane to be highly permeable to H+. How would such drugs affect oxidative phosphorylation?
Respuesta
Movement of electrons down the ETC would be inhibited
ATP synthesis would be inhibited
ATP synthesis would be unaffected
ATP synthesis would be stimulated
Both a and b are correct
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
The source of energy that directly drives the synthesis of ATP during oxidative phosphorylation is the
Respuesta
oxidation of NADH
oxidation of glucose
oxidation of pyruvate
H+ gradient
reduction of O2
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
Compared with oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria, a key difference of anaerobic respiration in bacteria is that
Respuesta
more ATP is made
ATP is made only via substrate-level phosphorylation
O2 is converted into H2O2 rather than H2O.
something other than O2 acts as the final electron acceptor of the ETC.
b and d
Pregunta 10
