Explain the process of synthesis of ATP through chemiosmosis​

Answer»

Answer

The process of synthesis of ATP through chemiosmosis is as follows

  • ATP synthesis linked to develop the proton GRADIENTS across thylakoid membrane.
  • Protons are produced by splitting of water.
  • The proton accumulate towards INSIDE of membrane that is in the lumen
  • This will result the development of proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane.
  • These are 2 parts of ATP ASE enzymes one called F0 and other F1
  • F0 is embedded in the membrane. It forms the trans membrane.
  • F1 is protrude on the outer surface of thylakoid membrane.
  • ATP ase has a membrane channel that allows diffusion of protons back across the membrane.
  • This releases ENERGY to activate the ATP ase and that will CATALYSES the formation of ATP.
