chemiosmosis

Cards (11)

  • ATP is produced in the internal membranes of which two cells

    chloroplasts and mitrchondria
  • what is chemiosmosis
    this the process by which protons flow across a membrane and down the electrochemical gradient and through the enzyme ATP synthase located in the stalked particle
  • in mitochondria where are the proton pumps found

    at the inner mitochondrial membrane
  • in chloroplasts where are the proton pumps found

    at the thylakoid membrane
  • in the mitochondria where are protons actively transported to and where from

    they are actively transported from the matrix into the inter-membrane space in the mitochondrion
  • in the chloroplasts where are protons actively transported to and where from

    they are actively transported from the stroma into the thylakoid space in a chloroplast
  • where does the electrochemical gradient form in the mitrchondrion
    in the intermembrane space
  • where does the electrochemical gradient form in the chloroplasts
    in the thylakoid space
  • what does the formation of a electrochemical gradient mean for the ph of the thylakoid space or intermembrane space
    it will be more acidic
  • what is released form protons in the stalked particle to help with the synthesis of ATP
    energy
  • what enzyme is located in the stalked particle

    ATP synthase
