Chapter 18, Problem 30CQ

(a)

Summary Introduction

To sketch: The oxygen consumption curve when CN^- is added at time t=1 and succinate at t=2  in a well-buffered suspension of mitochondria containing an excess of ADP and Pi.

Concept introduction: The oxygen consumption curve shows the consumption of oxygen by the electron transport chain and the consequence effect in production of ATP using ADP and Pi.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To sketch: The oxygen consumption curve when oligomycin is added at time t=1 and DNP at time=2 in a well-buffered suspension of mitochondria containing an excess of ADP and Pi.

Concept introduction: The oxygen consumption curve shows the consumption of oxygen by the electron transport chain and the consequence effect in production of ATP using ADP and Pi.
