Question

Which of these answer choices best describes the overall effects that would occur in an animal that consumes this plant?

Answer 1

The majority of ATP will not form.

Step-by-step explanation:

The poison leaf plant, also known as gifblaar contains fluoroacetic acid, a compound that shut down the Krebs cycle that leads to less production of ATP because Krebs cycle drives the formation of electron carriers. These electron carriers are very important because these electron carriers carry the energy that is used to create a large number of ATP molecules in the final steps of aerobic respiration so we can conclude that majority of ATP will not form due to poison.
