Arsenic is a type of cellular poison that inhibits the oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl CoA 1 What part of cellular respiration is affected by arsenic 2 What would you expect to happen to ATP production in someone poisoned with arsenic 1 Glycolysis is affected by arsenic 2 ATP production will be unaffected by arsenic since Glycolysis only produces a small amount of ATP 4 1 The Citric Acid Cycle is affected by arsenic 2 ATP production will increase to critically high levels causing cells to burn out 1 The Electron Transport Chain is affected by arsenic 2 Without Acetyl CoA to power ATP Synthase ATP production will be critically low 1 The Citric Acid cycle is affected by arsenic 2 ATP production will be critically low since cellular respiration will be halted immediately following Glycolysis
