1. Louis Pasteur noted that microbes (which can grow eitheranaerobically or aerobically) consumed large amounts of glucosewhen grown without oxygen, forming lactic acid. However, when anexcess of oxygen was supplied, the concentration of lactic aciddecreased as well as the consumption of glucose. Known as the“Pasteur Effect,” explain this phenomenon
2.DPN is used as a drug to treat obesity, working as a protonuncoupler to diminish the proton gradient needed for ATP synthesisbecause of oxidative phosphorylation.
a.) Why would this drug be effective in weight loss?
b.) Why would its use be dangerous to your health? Note thatthere are two questions being asked here.
