I need some help understanding mitochondria

... of the mitochondrial need/have proteins? & why are the majority of the proteins found in a cell in the mitochondria? Why & how do ATP synthase in the inner membrane and use the concentration gradient to produce ATP? and what is a concentration gradient? What is an electron transport ...

Role of membranes in synthesis of ATP in cellular respiratio

... to regulate hydrogen levels. ATP production occurs because of chemiosmosis, the diffusion of hydrogen ions across the membrane using the ATP synthase (a transport protein). This protein uses the power of hydrogen ions sandwiched between the inner and outer membranes, as a result of the electron ...

ATP Synthesis

Use the ATP synthase showing the critical polypeptide subunits in ATP synthesis – use the structure of ATP to explain how the special features of the protein assembly allow for the proton motive force to create torque and ultimately ...

ATP Synthesis

You are on the right track but you still need to explain why the membrane is important for the ATP synthase and the chemiosomosis. Think about gradient formation.

ATP Synthesis

QUESTION: Why do organisms need to perform their ATP synthesis in the presence of a membrane? ATTEMPT: Is it because ATP synthase is the molecular machine that synthesises ATP in your body and it is also powered by chemiosmosis.
