Chapter 7.5, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The link between the proton gradient and electron transport with ATP synthesis.
Introduction: The aerobic respiration comprises of the electron transport chain in which the oxygen molecule acts as the final acceptor of electrons. It is a system that comprises of five complexes through which the electrons are transported by
