They both are enzymes related to ATP. The difference lies in that ATPase breaks down ATP while ATP synthase synthesizes ATP.

What causes the difference between he therotical and actual yields of ATP in aerobic repiration?
ATP is spent transporting pyruvate and ADP into the mitochondrial matrix. Protons leak across the inner mitochondrial membrane without using ATP synthase.
Which of these phosphorylates ADP to make ATP?
ATP synthase
When ATP loses phosphate it turns it what?
When ATP loses inorganic phosphate, Pi, through ATPase, you get ADP
What does the top partof ATP synthase do when hydrogen ions enter?
When a new hydrogen ion enters, the top part of the ATP synthase complex rotates.The hydrogen ions provide energy for the synthesis of ATP molecules.ÊÊ
How manys ions have to enter in order for ATP synthase to have enough energy to make ATP?
three H+ protons
What is the enzyme in the mitochondria that helps in the synthesis of ATP?
It's either ATP synthase (if you are studying the end of the ETC part of respiration, where ADP is converted to ATP) through substrate-level phosphorylation or nucleoside-diphosphate kinase (if you are looking at the transfer of a P* from, say, GTP to ADP to make ATP and GDP) through oxidative phosphorylation.
What enzyme is responsible for synthesizing ATP?
The enzyme is ATP synthase (sometimes referred to as "ATP synthetase").It catalyzes the synthesis of ATP from ADP and free inorganic phosphate. It is a remarkable enzyme, part of which spins round. In fact, ATP synthase has been called a molecular machine.To see an image, use the link below.
What ATP making process creates the most ATP?
Most ATP is synthesized from ADP and inorganic phosphate by ATP synthase (FoF1, or F-type ATPase). This enzyme is present in mitochondria, in chloroplasts and in bacteria.
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.)
What spins to provide energy for adding a phosphate group to ADP?
The rotor part of the ATP synthase enzyme.
Which organelle produces ATP via electron transport system?
The electron transport chain (ETC) is conducted in the mitochondria. The four complexes of the ETC, along with the enzyme that produces ATP (known as Complex V, ATP synthase, or F0F1-ATPase), are located in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
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 causes the difference between he therotical and actual yields of ATP in aerobic repiration?
ATP is spent transporting pyruvate and ADP into the mitochondrial matrix. Protons leak across the inner mitochondrial membrane without using ATP synthase.
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.
Where in the process of cellular respiration does ATP synthase make ATP?
ATP synthase is involved in making ATP + P at the membrane in the mitochondria. This occurs at the beginning of the Krebs cycle.
Where are ATP synthase complexes located?
They are found in mitochondria and in chloroplasts.In mitochondria, the ATP synthase complexes are embedded in the inner membrane. In chloroplasts, the ATP synthase complexes are embedded in the thylakoid membranes.
Which of these phosphorylates ADP to make ATP?
ATP synthase
