Concept explainers
To compare: The sketch diagrams illustrating a proton gradient involved in the chloroplast and mitochondria.
Introduction: Photosynthesis is a process by which carbon dioxide and water are used to produce glucose molecules using energy from sunlight. During this process, oxygen gas is evolved. Reactions of photosynthesis take place in the chloroplast of the plant cell that contains the green pigment chlorophyll.
To determine: Whether, in each sketch, the protons are being pumped into the inner most compartment or out of it.
Introduction: Photosynthesis is a process by which carbon dioxide and water are used to produce glucose molecules by using energy from sunlight. During this process, oxygen gas is evolved. The several reactions of the photosynthesis take place in the chloroplast of the plant cell that contains the green pigment chlorophyll.
To determine: Whether the direction of proton gradient matters in the chloroplast and mitochondria.

- In the Electron Transport Chain, how are hydrogen ions pumped out of a bacteria cell and then how do they get back into the cell? How does this process create adenosine triphosphate (ATP)? View keyboard shortcutsarrow_forwardBased on the previous figure, how is energy converted successively from NADH to protons, and then from protons to ATP? Question 8 options: NADH → H+ H+ → ATP 1. Redox potential energy → gradient potential energy 2. Gradient potential energy → chemical energy 3. Redox potential energy → chemical energy 4. Membrane potential energy → redox potential energy 5. Membrane potential energy → gradient potential energy 6. Chemical energy → gradient potential energyarrow_forwardDiagram the process of the electron transport chain.
