In normal mitochondria, the rate of NADH consumption (oxidation) will: be increased in active (still aerobic) muscle, decreased in inactive (still aerobic) muscle. be very low if the ATP synthase is inhibited but increase when an uncoupler is added. decrease if mitochondrial ADP and Pi is depleted. decrease when cyanide is used to prevent electron transfer through the cytochrome a a3 complex (complex IV). All of the above are true.

Answer: all of the above are true

Step-by-step explanation:

all the statements are correct since the NADH consumption rate increases in the active muscle and decreases in the inactive one, it is influenced by inhibiting ATP synthase and if it is uncoupled it increases, it is also influenced by decreasing mitochondrial ADP and Pi, being the mechanism of death due to cyanide consumption decreasing
