Exposing inner mitochondrial membranes to ultrasonic vibrations will disrupt the membranes. However, the fragments will reseal "inside out." These little vesicles that result can still transfer electrons from NADH to oxygen and synthesize ATP. If the membranes are agitated further, however, the ability to synthesize ATP is lost. These inside-out membrane vesicles

These inside-out membrane vesicles 





A) will become acidic inside the vesicles when NADH is added.
B) will become alkaline inside the vesicles when NADH is added.
C) will make ATP from ADP and i if transferred to a pH 4 buffered solution after incubation in a pH 7 buffered solution.
D) will hydrolyze ATP to pump protons out of the interior of the vesicle to the exterior.
E) will reverse electron flow to generate NADH from NAD? in the absence of oxygen.
