The rest of the group agrees with your conclusion that Dr. Tamm was likely exposed to a membrane uncoupling agent. Uncoupling agents 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

b

is correct hope this   also i learnd this in middle school

answer by yourhope:

answer is

human impact on the environment can be seen in the deterioration of the !

4.) metal

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."
