∙ 8y agoATP provides energy for the cell. (It can be thought of as a quantum of energy, though that's an oversimplification.) Therefore the primary role of ATP synthesis is to create a form of energy the cell can utilize.

What enzyme helps produce ATP in light reaction?
In plants and algae, the enzyme RUBISCO helps with photosynthesis.
When ATP synthase in activated it adds a phosphate group to what molecule?
ATP synthase catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group to an ADP molecule. ADP + ATP synthase + P --> ATP + ATP synthase (ATP synthase on both sides of the equation indicates that, as an enzyme, it is not used up in the reaction.)
Do chloroplast synthesize ATP?
Chloroplasts produce glucose by photosynthesis. glucose is used to generate ATP
What are enzymes that creates ATP called?
ATP Synthase
How does ATP synthase produce ATP-?
Hydrogen ions flow back down their gradient through a channel in an ATP synthase. The ATP synthase harnesses the proton-motive force to phosphorylate ADP, forming ATP.Read more: How_does_chemiosmosis_produce_ATP
What is the role synthase in photosynthesis?
to produce ATP for the calvin cycle
What powers the ATP synthase enzyme in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is the process that plants convert solar energy into the energy stored in chemical bonds. This consists of two reactions, light dependent and light independent.
What enzyme helps produce ATP in light reaction?
In plants and algae, the enzyme RUBISCO helps with photosynthesis.
What do the processes of photosynthesis and cell respiration have in common?
photosynthesis and cellular respiration can smd.
When ATP synthase in activated it adds a phosphate group to what molecule?
ATP synthase catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group to an ADP molecule. ADP + ATP synthase + P --> ATP + ATP synthase (ATP synthase on both sides of the equation indicates that, as an enzyme, it is not used up in the reaction.)
Do chloroplast synthesize ATP?
Chloroplasts produce glucose by photosynthesis. glucose is used to generate ATP
What spins to provide energy for adding a phosphate group to ADP?
The rotor part of the ATP synthase enzyme.
Which of the following best describes the direct mechanism of ATP production during photosynthesis?
Protons are pumped across the thylakoid membrane, where they flow back through ATP synthase which synthesizes ATP.
Which protein complex allows hydrogen ions to rush out of the thylacoid providing energy that can be used to make a molecule?
ATP synthase allows H+ ions to pass through the thylakoid membrane.
What is the chemiosmosis production of ATP compared to in photosynthesis?
The chemiosmotic production of ATP through photophosphorylation in photosynthesis is closely related to the chemiosmotic production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation in cellular respiration. Both processes utilize a proton gradient across a membrane to power the ATP synthase which phosphorylates ADP into ATP.
What is the difference between ATPase and ATP synthase?
They both are enzymes related to ATP. The difference lies in that ATPase breaks down ATP while ATP synthase synthesizes ATP.
Where are the catalytic knobs of ATP synthase located?
The catalytic knobs of ATP synthase would be located on the stromal side of the membrane. Protons travel through ATP synthase from the thylakoid space to the stroma.
