Chloroplasts and mitochondria both generate ATP by chemiosmosis, but use different sources of energy. Explain how an electron transport chain coupled with chemiosmosis powers the production of ATP. What is the original source of energy for chemiosmosis in the mitochondria? What is the original source of energy for chemiosmosis in the chloroplast?
The electron transport chain and chemiosmosis work together to produce ATP in a process called oxidation phosphorylation. In the electron transport chain, electrons from NADH or FADH2 within cellular respiration and PS2 within cellular respiration are passes to each protein. Energy is given off or loss each time an electron is passed, and it is used to pump H+ ions against their gradient out of the membrane. This gradient created by the electron transport chain powers chemiosmosis ATP synthase, allowing H+ ions to flow back into either the mitochondria , matrix, or stroma, and it acts like a hydroelectric dam. Each time it turns, a phosphate is added to ADP to make ATP. In the mitochondria, food energy powers chemiosmosis and in the chloroplast, light energy powers chemiosmosis.
