Question #8a106

Answer 1

Chemiosmosis, which isn't related to osmosis, is the production of ATP.

Explanation:

Chemiosmosis is the production of ATP inside the chloroplast.

Inside the chloroplast, when `H_2O` is split into 3 seperate components, you get a 2 Hydrogen atoms. These Hydrogen atoms are left to float around inside the Chloroplast until they are used.

When they are used, they are basically sucked up a protein called "ATP Synthase." This movement of Hydrogen across the membrane produces ATP. This process is known as chemiosmosis.
