MCAT Question of the Day
    •

    Q:

    		 A hypothetical weight-loss drug inhibits ATP Synthase. Which of the following best describes why this drug could possibly help with weight loss?
    		 

    A

    		 Due to the drug inhibiting ATP Synthase, glucose cannot be broken down, and is therefore excreted

    B

    		 The drug blocks ATP metabolism, requiring the person to break down the energy stored in their fat reserves

    C

    		 Due to the drug inhibiting ATP Synthase, more glucose is used because less ATP can be made per molecule

    D

    		 The drug causes cells to use far less ATP than normal, so they use less glucose
