It blocks the final electron receptor, oxygen. So the cells do not complete the production of ATP and die.

Which metabolic poison can inhibit the production of ATP and therefore stop active transport?
Potassium cyanide
Cyanide binds with at least one molecule involved in producing ATP If a cell is exposed to cyanide most of the cyanide would be found within the?
Cyanide binds with at least one molecule involved in producing ATP. If a cell is exposed to cyanide, most of the cyanide would be found within the mitochondria?
What is a life process common to all living things?
ATP production
How does cyanide inhibit mitochondrial function?
ATP decreases
What is the name of the process wherein co2 is released without the production of atp or nadph?
Photorespiration
Which metabolic poison can inhibit the production of ATP and therefore stop active transport?
Potassium cyanide
Why cynide is the most poisonous for animals?
Spelt cyanide....blocks electron transport in mitochondria and prevents production of ATP.
How does cyanide and DNP work on cellular respiration?
Cyanide blocks the last step in the production of ATP. The binding of cyanide to cytochrome c oxidase prevents transport of electrons from cytochrome c to oxygen. No ATP will be produced. The central nervous system and the heart are the most to be affected. Death can occur in minutes.
What part of cellular respiration in most likely to be inhibited by cyanide?
Cyanide blocks cytochrome c oxidase in the mitochondria. This is a transmembrane protein that establishes a proton gradient used by ATP synthase to create ATP. This shuts down ATP production leading to a quick death if exposure is high enough.
What is the immediate result of stopping the glycolisis process?
Decrease of ATP production in the Krebs cycle Explanation: Apex
Cyanide binds with at least one molecule involved in producing ATP If a cell is exposed to cyanide most of the cyanide would be found within the?
Cyanide binds with at least one molecule involved in producing ATP. If a cell is exposed to cyanide, most of the cyanide would be found within the mitochondria?
What is a life process common to all living things?
ATP production
What process of ATP production begins with the breakdown of pyruvic acid?
aerobic
How does cyanide inhibit mitochondrial function?
ATP decreases
While glycolysis results in the production of 4 ATP molecules, 2 must be used in the process. This results in a net production of only 2 ATP molecules per glucose?
To phosphorylate intermediates in the process.
Which process would this animal rely on the most for its production ot ATP molecules?
Respiration is the process that most animals usually rely on most for its production of the ATP molecules. Plants on the other hand rely on photosynthesis.
In terms ATP production which process results in the most stored energy?
Aerobic respiration results in the most ATP.
