How does the electron transport system generate ATP?
Correct answer: B. Chemiosmosis
- A. Symbiosis
- B. Chemiosmosis
- C. Both A and B
- D. None of these
Explanation
"The explanation for this question will be added soon!"Chemiosmosis is a process in which ions move across a semi-permeable membrane and an ionic or electrochemical gradient is generated. This drives ATP synthesisChemiosmosis happens in mitochondria and chloroplasts only. Hence this is correct

About Bioenergetics
Cellular respiration explains how cells release energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain. It includes ATP production, substrate-level and oxidative phosphorylation, aerobic versus anaerobic respiration, and the roles of mitochondria, oxygen and fermentation in energy transfer.
