When the protein gramicidin is integrated into a membrane, an h channel forms and the membrane becomes very permeable to protons (h ions). if gramicidin is added to an actively respiring muscle cell, how would it affect the rates of electron transport, proton pumping, and atp synthesis in oxidative phosphorylation

answer: option (a) is the correct answer.

explanation:

the measurement of hydrogen ions in a solution is known as ph.

if ph of a solution is less than 7 then the solution is acidic. if ph of a solution is greater than 7 then the solution is basic.

when the ph of a solution equals 7, then the solution is considered as neutral.

the ph of pure water is 7, therefore, it means that concentration of hydronium ions equals that of hydroxide ions.
