A proton gradient is an important part of both photosynthesis and cellular respiration because couple the favorable flow of H+ to transport specific metabolites into and out of organelles.

<h3>What is the proton gradient?</h3>

The gradient is sometimes called the proton-motive and can be thought of as a form of energy, force and force in a battery. Like other ions, protons are not able to cross directly through the phospholipid bilayer of the membrane, as the interior of the membrane is hydrophobic.

The proton gradient generated by this manipulation provided a driving force for ATP synthesis in the absence of light. This confirms the chemiosmotic theory, where a chemical potential across the membrane can provide energy for ATP synthesis.

The proton gradient produced by pumping protons during the electron transport chain is used to synthesize ATP.

Answer:option C= mRNA

Explanation:

MACROMOLECULES are large molecules, such as protein, commonly created by the polymerization of smaller sub-units called monomers.

The NUCLEAR PORE is a protein-lined channel in the nuclear envelope. The NUCLEAR PORE regulates the transportation of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. In eukaryotic cells, the nucleus is separated from the cytoplasm and surrounded by a nuclear envelope.

mRNA is synthesized by DNA during a process known as the TRANSCRIPTION. After the synthesis, the new molecule moves from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. It passes through the nuclear membrane through a NUCLEAR PORE. Then, it will later join with a ribosome, which is just coming together from its two sub-units, one large and one small.

Why are polymerization reactions sometimes called dehydration synthesis reactions?
vichka [17]

The answer is "because water is produced as a by-product"...the word dehydration should also be a major clue because that means water loss.
