Why do hydrogen ions flow from the thylakoid space to the stroma through ATP Synthase?  Group of answer choices a. They are pumped actively through ATP Synthase. This uses up ATP energy and causes the production of ADP and phosphate. b. They flow passively from high concentration to low concentration via facilitated diffusion. As they flow through ATP Synthase, the enzyme spins and produces ATP. c. They flow through the Calvin Cycle and produce light. d. Hydrogen ions do not actually flow from the thylakoid space to the stroma. They flow the opposite way.
