How is the energy from redox reactions used to move hydrogen ions across the membrane by chemiosmosis? It opens a channel allowing the free flow of hydrogen ions. It attracts the hydrogen ions by adding negative charge to the membrane. It causes conformational changes in the carrier proteins, which push the hydrogen ions to the other side. It deprotonates buffers. It denatures the protein carriers allowing hydrogen ions to leak across the membrane.
