Question

How is ATP produced in chloroplasts?

Select one:

When a photon hits an ADP molecule, it is kicked to a higher energy level, so it can combine with P to form ATP

an enzyme transfers the P group from a substrate to ADP, forming ATP

water is split into protons, electrons and oxygen.

When a photon hits a chlorophyll molecule, the energy is transformed into heat

an electron transport chain creates a proton gradient over a membrane. ATP is made when these protons move passively through a large protein complex embedded in the membrane.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Introduction :-

Chloroplasts are organelles found in the cells of photosynthetic organisms such as plants and algae. They are responsible for the process of photosynthesis, in which light energy is converted into chemical energy that can be used by the cell.
