In presence of Rotenone, the production of ATP would occur LESS EFFICIENTLY. Rotenone is a naturally occurring compound that is used as an insecticide/herbicide.
Cellular respiration is a series of reactions by which cells produce ATP by using oxygen and the chemical energy from foods.
Cellular respiration has three main stages: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation.
During oxidative phosphorylation, the transport of electrons through a series of protein complexes is coupled to the generation of an electrochemical proton gradient, which is subsequently used to generate ATP.
Rotenone is an inhibitor of the electron transport chain that acts to repress the complex I in the mitochondria, thereby inhibiting ATP synthesis.
