SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY • MAKE CONNECTIONS The following diagram represents an experiment with isolated thylakoids. The thylakoids were first made acidic by soakingthem in a solution at pH 4. After the thylakoid space reached pH 4, the thylakoids were transferred to a basic solution at pH 8. The thylakoids then made ATP in the dark. (See Concept 3.3 to review pH.)
Draw an enlargement of part of the thylakoid membrane in the beaker with the Solution at pH 8. Draw ATP synthase. Label the areas of high H+ concentration and low H+ concentration. Show the direction protons flow through the enzyme, and show the reaction where ATP is synthesized. Would ATP end up in the thylakoid or outside of it? Explain why the thylakoids in the experiment were able to make ATP in the dark.

- Draw a simple sketch illustrating a thylakoid membrane that is actively involved in chemiosmosis and label the two compartments it separates. Add the ATP synthase complex, indicate the proton gradient, and specify inwhich compartment ATP is synthesized.arrow_forwardA key experiment that helped put doubts to rest regarding the chemiosomotic theory used an artificial vesicle, a light activated proton pump, and ATP synthase. Which of the following are true about this experiment? (select all that apply) Group of answer choices The inside of the vesicle is more negatively charged when the light is turned on ATP production would decrease if the proton pump was not included in the experiment Adding UCP1 into the experiment would increase ATP production ATP production increases when the light is turned on The pH inside the vesicle decreases when the light is turned on The final stage of the electron transport chain is the transfer of the electrons to ATP synthase. Group of answer choices True False Complex I can accept electrons from NADH using binding sites on both the matrix and intermembrane space sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane Group of answer choices True False Different iron-sulfur clusters can have different…arrow_forwardDraw a basic drawing of a thylakoid membrane that is actively engaged in chemiosmosis and mark the two compartments it divides. Add the ATP synthase complex, indicate the proton gradient, and define which compartment ATP is generated in.arrow_forward
- Need help with #8 thank youarrow_forwardge Which of the following statements is correct about chemiosmosis? Select one: Oa. it makes chloroplastic ATP when protons move against their concentration gradient Ob. it makes ATP in the golgi when proteins move down their concentration gradient O c. it is a chemical reaction when one molecule gets oxidized and another molecule gets reduce d. it requires the passive transport of hydrogen ions through a protein that makes ATP O e. it makes ATP when water moves passively across a membrane due Dec 8 at 5pm O I Jump to... 4) Next pagearrow_forward1. What would be the effect on ATP production during chemiosmosis and oxidative phorphorylation, if the pH within the inner membrane space of the mitochondrion were decreased, assuming no effect of pH on the structure of proteins in the membrane? 2. What would be the effect on production of ATP from photosynthesis, assuming no effect on enzyme/protein stability, if the pH of the chloroplast stroma were lowered?arrow_forward

A culture of Spirogyra (an autotrophic alga) is maintained in a water solution containing dissolved carbon dioxide and a source of phosphates but lacking nitrogen compounds. A researcher determines the rates of synthesis of several organic compounds found in the Spirogyra before and after several weeks in the water solution.

- Compare photo litho autotrophy with chemo-organo heterotrophy. Sun light is the ultimate source of energy and all living organisms obtain their energy directly or indirectly from the sun. However in deep-sea vents (where there is no sun light) life has originated and the many groups of microorganisms are flourishing in such environment. How? Explain your reasoningarrow_forwardINTERPRET DATA The figure depicts the absorption spectrum of a plant pigment. What colors or wavelengths does it absorb? What is the color of this pigment?arrow_forwardWhich statement about thylakoids in eukaryotes is not correct? a. Thylakoids are assembled into stacks. b. Thylakoids exist as a maze of folded membranes. c. The space surrounding thylakoids is called stroma. d. Thylakoids contain chlorophyll.arrow_forward
