The mechanism of ATP formation both in chloroplast and mitochondria is explained by
-
- relay pump theory of Godlewski
- Munch’s pressure/ mass flow model
- chemiosmotic theory of Mitchell
- Cholondy-Went’s Model
Correct Option: C
According to the chemiosmotic theory the energy liberated during electron transport performs the osmotic work of accumulating H+ ions, conserving energy in building a proton gradient, which is used to build ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate.
