Mutations result either from errors in DNA replication or from the damaging effects of mutagens, such as chemicals and radiation, which react with DNA and change the structures of individual nucleotides. All cells possess DNA-repair enzymes that attempt to minimize the number of mutations that occur

Which of the following is/are common to chemiosmosis and the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis? electron transport onl
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Both electron transport and a proton gradient

Explanation:

The process of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and electron transport chain in photosynthesis undergo chemiosmosis to produce ATP molecules.

Chemiosmosis is a process where the energy utilized by the movement of proton and electrons produces ATP molecules.

Both the processes involve the movement of electrons through electron carriers where the reduced energy is utilized to drive the flow of protons through the plasma membrane. This creates a proton gradient across the plasma membrane which rotates the ATP synthase and converts the ADP molecules into ATP molecules.

Thus, the selected option is correct.
