Which accumulates in the inter membrane space of the mitochondrion during electron transport?
During electron transport in the mitochondrion, protons (H+) accumulate in the intermembrane space. This happens as electrons are transferred through the electron transport chain, creating a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This gradient of protons is later utilized by ATP synthase to generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
What is passed from protein to protein in the electron transport chain?
Energy is transferred to the chain of proteins in the electron transport. A electron transport chain is a series of compounds that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors through redox reactions.
What photosystems are embedded in the electron transport chain?
PSII, PSI, cytocromes, ferrodoxins are the part of ETC. They transport the protons to ATPase to produce ATP.
What form do proteins need to be in to go through the electron transport chain?
Stripped of their electrons by electron carriers. Electrons are the only thing going through the electron transport chain, where their motive force is moving protons across membranes.
Where do electrons get there energy in photosystem 2?
Excited electrons are transferred to an electron transport chain.
What supplies electrons and protons to the electron transport chain?
Youre the one for me.
A series of molecules found in the inner membranes of mitochondria and chloroplasts through which electron pass in a process that causes protons to build up on one side of the membrane?
i belive it is electron transport chain
The energy released in the mitochondrial electron transport chain is used to transport protons into the?
matrix. to create a concentration gradient
How is energy in the electron transport system temporarily stored?
By pumping protons into intermembrane space
Which accumulates in the inter membrane space of the mitochondrion during electron transport?
During electron transport in the mitochondrion, protons (H+) accumulate in the intermembrane space. This happens as electrons are transferred through the electron transport chain, creating a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This gradient of protons is later utilized by ATP synthase to generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
Is an electron transport chain passive transport or active transport?
passive transport since the protons are moving down their concentration gradient back into the mitochondrial matrix.
The photosynthetic electron transport causes the accumulation of protons in which part of the chloroplast?
internal thylakoid space

What job does the electron transport chain accomplish in order to drive the formation of ATP?
The proteins in the electron transport chain pump protons from the matrix of the mitochondria to the intermembrane space, thus establishing an electrochemical gradient
