Question

Q1.

Experiment 1. Two sets of cells are subjected to a FRAP experiment. One cell has a lipid bilayer that includes cholesterol, which makes it less fluid; and the other cell has a membrane made purely of phospholipids. The results are shown below. Which curve, A or B, was obtained from cells with a membrane that includes cholesterol?

Select ONE option:

1. A

2. B

Experiment 2. Membrane fluidity decreases as the temperature cools. If you conducted two FRAP experiments with the same cell, one experiment at warm temperature, and the other at a cooler temperature, which of the FRAP curves below best represents the cell at the warmer temperature?

Select ONE option:

1. A

2. B

Q2.

What would happen to the (i) magnitude of the mitochondrial proton gradient, (ii) rate of mitochondrial oxygen consumption, and (iii) rate of acetyl-CoA oxidation in cells treated with the ATP synthase inhibitor oligomycin?

B. (i) increase, (ii)decrease, (iii) increase

C. (i) decrease, (ii)decrease, (iii) decrease

D. (i) decrease, (ii)increase, (iii) increase

E. (i) increase, (ii) decrease, (iii) decrease

Explanation / Answer

Ans for Question 1 Experiment 1

B is the answer as During an FRAP experiment, if the amount of cholesterol is increased in a specific region, recovery should not occur after photobleaching. This is due to cholesterol molecules being unable to diffuse because they are part of a microdomain.

ouestion 1 answer for 2 is

A is the answer as temperature plays a very important role and due to warm temperature frap takes place soon.

Ans for question 2 is

Ans is a because

If the proton gradient is not dissipated by the influx of protons into a mitochondrion with the generation of ATP, eventually the outside of the mitochondrion develops such a large positive charge that the electron-transport chain can no longer pump protons against the gradient

For oxygen consumption it is 2 its decreases beacuse

Oxygen consumption stops because oligomycin inhibits ATP synthesis, which is coupled to the activity of the electron-transport chain.

Ans for acetyl Coa will decrease.

So the ans for question 2 is B & the reasons are explained above.

Ans for ques 3 is both

Both mDna & nDna both are responsible

Ans for ques 4 is B

Ans for ques 5 is cartilage & heart

Ans for ques 6 is glycolysis will occur in cytosol

ATP synthesis will occur in mitochondria

Ans for ques 7 it converts glucose to pyruvate

It produces co2

It requires oxygen

Ans for ques 8 is statement B D E & F is right

Ans for ques 9 C & D is right

Ans for ques 10 is

Acetyl coa

Atp

Fadh2

Carbondioxide

Nadh

Thats all the answers.
