Question

What is the role of ATP synthase in photosynthesis?

A. It produces glucose from carbon dioxide.
B. It produces ADP molecules from NADP molecules.
C. It gives energy to electrons in the thylakoid.
D. It allows hydrogen ions out of the thylakoid.

Answer 1

The answer is D.

D. It allows hydrogen ions out of the thylakoid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Option D. It allows hydrogen ions out of the thylakoid.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hydrogen ions are allowed to go through thylakoid membrane which is used to formed ATP from the process called chemiosmosis. ATP synthase is responsible for this process. The hydrogen ions move from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration.
