Question
Chapter 6, Problem 8WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason why a disinfectant that pokes holes in the bacterial cell membrane would stop the cells from making ATP and why the inability to produce ATP kills the cells.
Concept introduction:
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is essential as it helps in powering nearly each and every activity, which requires energy input in a cell. Respiration is the process where potential energy is harvested from the food molecules and that energy is used for synthesizing ATP.

Drug X was developed to reduce blurred vision in healthy patients, but the effectiveness had not been tested on those suffering from multiple sclerosis. A study was conducted to determine if Drug X is effective at reducing blurry vision in multiple sclerosis patients. To be considered effective, a drug must reduce blurred vision by more than 30% in patients. Researchers predicted that a 20 mg dose of the drug would be effective for treating blurred vision in multiple sclerosis patients by reducing blurred vision by more than 30%. Drug X was administered to groups of multiple sclerosis patients at three doses (10 mg/day, 20 mg/day, 30 mg/day) for three weeks. A fourth group of patients was given a placebo containing no drug X for the same length of time. Vision clarity was measured for each patient before and after the three-week period using a standard vision test. The results were analyzed and graphed (See Figure…arrow_forward
