Answer:
Elerochemical gradient
Explanation:This coccus during the process of chemiosmosis in oxidative phosphorylation during cellular respiration. It is the electrochemical gradient that provides the energy needed by ATPase Synthase for the phosphorylation of ADP tp ATP, necessary for ATP production
The electochemical gradient is due to gradient produced from the pumping of protons by the proton motive force(PMF) into the intrammenbrane space. from the matrix.The accumulation leads the the production of electrochemical gradients because the Protons diffuse across from higher gradient in the intramembrsne space into the lower concentration gradient the matrix.Therefore,energy is produced as the diffusion takes place.
The ETC, is the source of generation of PMF, which pumps protons across into the intramembrane, for the electrochemical gradients productions
