The correct answer is: Protons are pumped out of the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space
Chemiosmosis can be described as movement of ions across a selectively permeable membrane, down their electrochemical gradient. It occurs during the cellular respiration within mitochondria and it is involved in ATP synthesis (oxidative phosphorylation via ATP synthase).
Electrons from electron carriers (NADH and FADH) donate electrons to the electron transport chain and that causes changes in protein complexes of electron transport chain. As a consequence, protein complexes pump H+ across a selectively permeable cell membrane from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space of mitochondria.
H+ can only get back and pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane with the help of ATP synthase (down their electrochemical gradient). ATP synthase turned by the force of the H+ diffusing through it forms ATP by adding a phosphate to ADP.
That population will have less variability in size which has slower rate of mutation or has experience less mutation.
<h2>What is mutation? </h2>
A mutation refers to a change in a DNA sequence of an organism. Mutations can result from DNA copying mistakes that is made during cell division, exposure to radiation or chemicals which is called mutagens, or infection caused by viruses.
If mutation occurs slowly or not completed, it will leads to less variability in size so we can conclude that the population will have less variability in size has experience less mutation.

Answer:
My guess is A
Explanation:
I guess it's a but dont choose it it might not be right
Osmosis of Water Across the Membrane. Osmosis is the tendency for water molecules to move from where there is a higher concentration to where there is a lower one. ... The cell membrane helps to regulate and slow down the flow of water into the cell. This is yet another way that the cell membrane helps maintain homeostasis
