Question

Which statement is NOT true? Uncouplers prevent ATP synthesis:

a. without affecting electron transport

b. by directly interfering with electron flow

c. by destroying the pH gradient

d. by destroying the proton motive force

e. by creating leaky membranes

Answer 1

Answer:

b. by directly interfering with electron flow

Explanation:

Uncouplers dissipate the electrochemical gradient but electron transport continues without ATP production by destroying the pH gradient or by destroying the proton motive force or by creating leaky membranes
