Which of the following combinations is required for chemiosmosis?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
Chemiosmosis requires a membrane, a proton pump, a proton gradient and ATP synthase.
Energy is used to pump protons across a membrane, to create a gradient or a high concentration of protons within the thylakoid lumen. ATP synthase has a channel that allows diffusion of protons back across the membrane; this releases enough energy to activate ATP synthase enzyme that catalyses the formation of ATP.
