What is adenosine triphosphate made of ?

Important Questions on Photosynthesis

EASY
Proton motive force is created by pumping protons across the
MEDIUM

Assertion A: During photophosphorylation protons are transported across the membrane and accumulated inside the lumen.

Reason R: To develop proton gradient, pheophytin transfers electrons to hydrogen carriers instead of electron carrier.

EASY
During the chemiosmotic synthesis of ATP, protons diffuse through F0 channels that activates ATPase enzyme. As a result, one molecule of ATP is formed when ________________ passes through ATPase.
