 +**2,4 - dinitrophenol (uncoupler ) leads to thermogenesis.**
  
 +   *2,4 -dinitrophenol (uncoupler) dissipates energy in the form of heat instead of ATP in oxodative phosphorylation.
 +   *It carries proton across inner mitochondrial membrane. This dissipates proton gradient without passing through ATP synthesis.
 +   *Electron transport and oxygen consumption continue but ATP synthesis decreases
 +
 +   *Thus, energy from oxidation is released as heat instead of ATP leading to thermogenesis.
