Molecules called uncouplers allow protons to cross the inner mitochondrial membrane.What effect would this have on ATP production in the mitochondria?


A) decreased ATP,because electrons would not be able to move through the electron transport chain
B) decreased ATP,because protons would not be available to pass through the ATP synthase
C) no effect,because protons cross the outer mitochondrial membrane to produce ATP
D) increased ATP,because this would spontaneously establish a proton gradient
E) increased ATP,because this would make more oxygen available in the mitochondrial matrix
