Assertion: ATPase enzyme has two parts, ...

Assertion: ATPase enzyme has two parts, One called the `F_(1)` is embedded in the membrane of thylakoid and forms a transmembrane channel that carries out facilitated diffusion of proton across the membrane.
Reason: The other portion is called `F_(0)` and protrudes on the thylakoid membrane on the side that faces the stroma

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason 1s the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
AT Pase enzyme has two parts, one called the `F_(6)` is embedded in the membrane of thylakoid and forms a transmembrane channel that carries out facilitated diffusion of proton across the membrane.
The other portion is called `F_(1)` and protrudes on the thylakoid membrane on the side that faces the stroma.

Fill in the blanks by choosing the correct option regarding chemiosmosis. "F_0 of ATPase enzyme forms a/an ____(i)_____ that carries out __(ii)__ diffusion of protons across the membrane. F_1 protrudes on the __(iii)__ surface of the __(iv)__ on the side that faces the __(v)__."

Assertion: The NADP reductase enzyme is located on the stroma side of the membrane of thylakoid Reason: During proton accumulation in lumen there is measurable decrease in pH in the stroma.

Assertion: Chemiosmosis require a membrane, a proton pump, a proton gradient and ATPase. Reason: The proton gradient is broken down due to movement of proton across the membrane to the lumen through the transmembrane channel of the F_(0) of the ATPase.

Assertion: The proton gradient is broken down due to the movement of protons across the membrane to stroma through the transmembrane channerl of the F_(0) of the ATPase. Reason: The breakdonw of proton gradient leads to release of energy.

Observe the given figure of ATP sysnthesis through chemiosmosis and arrange the followign events in correct sequence (a) Movement of e^(-) through H-carrier ltBrgt (b) Shifting of protons from stroma to Lumen ltBrgt (c) Facilitated diffusion of protons across the membrane (d) Conformation change in the F_(1) particle of the ATPase (e) Formation of ATP molecule

Study the following statements regarding chemiosmotic hypothesis in mitochondria and select the correct ones. (i) F_(1) headpiece contains the site for the synthesis of ATP from ADP + Pi . (ii) F_(0) par forms the channel through which protons cross the inner membrane. (iii) For each ATP produced, 2H^(+) pass through F_(0) from the intermembrane space to the matrix down the electrochemical proton gradient.

[A] : F_(0) - F_(1) - ATP ase complex is embedded in inner membrane of mitochondrion. [R] : It has five polypeptides in F_(1) and four in F_(0) . Protons enter the mitochondrion through F_(0) . ATP synthesis is catalysed by ATPase present in F_(1) .

A L shaped container has dimensions shown in the fig. It has circular cross section of radius R. It is placed on a smooth horizontal table. The container is divided into two equal sections by a membrane AB. One section contains nitrogen and the other one contains oxygen. Temperature of both sides is same but pressure in the compartment having N_(2) is 4 times that in the other compartment. Due to some reason the membrane gets punctured. Find the distance moved by the cylinder if the cylinder is constrained to move in x direction only [with the help of guiding walls W_(1) " and " W_(2) ]. There is no friction anywhere and mass of the cylinder and membrane is negligible
