What is the primary function of chemiosmosis in the thylakoid reactions during photosynthesis?
A
To generate ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate
B
To fix carbon dioxide into glucose
C
To split water molecules into oxygen and protons
D
To transport electrons from NADPH to the Calvin cycle
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that chemiosmosis is a process that occurs in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts during photosynthesis.
Recognize that the primary role of chemiosmosis is to generate ATP, which is a crucial energy carrier in cells.
Identify that during chemiosmosis, a proton gradient is created across the thylakoid membrane by the electron transport chain.
Realize that the energy from this proton gradient is used by ATP synthase to convert ADP and inorganic phosphate into ATP.
Conclude that the primary function of chemiosmosis in the thylakoid reactions is to generate ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate, which is essential for the Calvin cycle and other cellular processes.
