According to the chemiosmotic theory, energy is utilized in order to synthesize atp within the mitochondria. This energy comes from the movement of ions (hydrogen ions) across a semipermeable membrane. This happens during the cellular respiration or photosynthesis (plants).

Hydrogen ions move across a semipermeable membrane because of the proton gradient and the movements occurs from the area with high proton concentration to an area of lower proton concentration. So, the formed electrochemical concentration gradient of protons can be used to make ATP.

Why are most mutations in cancer cells called 'passengers.'?
gavmur [86]

What allows cancer live at high mutation rate? Which mutations make it weaker? Is there a way to exploit its natural mechanisms to make it less evolvable? Harvard Associate Professor, Leonid Mirny, on clinical phenomena we can now explain using the balance between ‘drivers’ and ‘passengers’.

Cancer is an evolutionary process. There are accumulations of mutations and then there is selection from mutations that make cells more malignant, more like cancer cells. Mutations come at random.
