The given statements concern the relationship between mitochondrial hydrogen ion concentration and energy storage as ATP during oxidative phosphorylation. Classify each statement as either accurate or inaccurate. a. Hydrogen ions cannot freely pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane.
b. H+ concentration is lower in the mitochondrial matrix than in the intermembrane space.
c. Energy is generated as a result of the difference in hydrogen ion concentration between the mitochondrial matrix and the cytoplasm.
d. ATP synthase uses energy from ATP to move H + into the mitochondrial matrix.

Solution :

The following statements regarding the relationship between the  mitochondrial hydrogen ion concentration and energy storage in the form of ATP during the process of oxidative phosphorylation are :

ACCURATE :

a. Hydrogen ions cannot freely pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane.

b. H+ concentration is lower in the mitochondrial matrix than in the intermembrane space.

INACCURATE :

c. Energy is generated as a result of the difference in hydrogen ion concentration between the mitochondrial matrix and the cytoplasm.

d. ATP synthase uses energy from ATP to move H + into the mitochondrial matrix.

helicase, i think thats it
