Define chemosmotic hypothesis

Answer» 1. Splitting of water results in Increasing of H+ ion concen\'n. (in thylakoid space)2. H+ ion concen\'n decreases towards the stroma side.(PQ converts to PQH2)Reduction of NADP+.pH increases. 3. It creates transmembrane proton concen\'n gradient. 4. Thylakoid memb. Is not itself permeable to p+ so p+ moves towards strong side through ATPase complex. ATPase complex has: F0 (pr. Inside & forms channels) F1 (outside the memb.) H+ ions flow from higher to lower concen\'n through ATPase complex that allows ATP synthase enzyme to produce ATP from ADP. 3H+ ions form 1ATP.
