Letting out air through tiny hole 4. balloon flies around 1. NADH and FADH2 drop off electrons creates energy 2. Energy pumps protons across membrane 3. protons want to move to other side through ATP Synthase 4. Protons rush through ATP Synthase which spins and creates energy that then turns ADP into ATP.
Proton Motive Force Process 1. Crowded room 2. balance 3. energy snacks Summary 1. Proton Build-Up: protons crowded from accross membrane 2. Proton Push: Protons want to move back to less crowded area 3. ATP Production: protons can only flow through ATP Synthase. This proton motive force movement creates ATP
Proton Motive Force Definition proton motive force is the pressure or energy that drives protons through the ATP-making machine.
