The energy for ATP synthesis is generated by the movement of protons from the ___ side of the inner mitochondrial membrane establishing a ___ gradient. intermembrane, pH cytoplasm, chemical gradient matrix, pH intermembrane, electrical potential matrix, sodium ion Question 5 1 pts Most abundant protein on the outer mitochondrial membrane is Complex III ATP synthase Complex II Complex I voltage-dependent anion channel
Riaz A.
The generation of ATP by ATP synthase is a massively endergonic reaction, driven by the concentration gradient of H+ ions across the inner membrane of the mitochondria, generated by the electron transport chain. The energy to pump H+ into the inter-membrane space is a result of the electrons transferred at every step of the chain.
Adi S.
When electrons flow along the electron transport chains of mitochondria, which of the following changes occurs? a. The pH of the matrix increases. b. ATP synthase pumps protons by active transport. c. The electrons gain free energy. d. $\mathrm{NAD}^{+}$ is oxidized.
