reactions?
A. Excited electrons are passed to electron acceptors
B. Glucose is produced
C. Carbon fixation occurs
D. Electrons are fused to form ATP
Compare photophosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation. How is chemiosmosis in chloroplasts different from chemiosmosis in mitochondria?
a.
Chemiosmosis is used in chloroplasts to transfer chemical energy from organic molecules to ATP.
b.
In mitochondria, light is transformed into ATP using photosystems I and II.
c.
Chemiosmosis in mitochondria occurs across an intra-organelle membrane, where it does not in chloroplasts.
d.
In chloroplasts, the high-energy electrons come from water.
