Why would the protons stay close to the membrane, rather than float away?
In terms of an electrochemical gradient being produced, compare and contrast any three (3) systems whereby a proton motive force is generated. Why is producing and maintaining a consistent proton motive force important? What potential problems could arise if the proton motive force becomes too high or too low, and how are these remedied? Discuss why in some instances a sodium motive force may be more appropriate than a proton motive force.
