Question

The movement of protons (h+) through the atp synthase occurs from ______ to ______ proton concentration.

Answer 1

The correct answers are "high; low" in that order. This is the correct answer because hydrogen ions (h+) are in a higher concentration extracellularly The ions are then pumped back into the intracellular matrix via the atp synthase pump where there is a lower concentration of h+ ions.
