Answer: One H⁺ ion ie required in converting ATP and inorganic phosphate to ATP

Explanation:During oxidative phosphorylation, high energy electrons released by hydrogen carriers are shuttled through the electron transport chain. The released energy is used to translocate 3 H+ ions from the matrix, creating an proton motive force, which will cause 1 H+ ion to move down the electrochemical gradient and diffuse back into the matrix (chemiosmosis) which is facilitated by ATP synthase. As the H+ moves through the ATP synthase this triggers the molecular rotation of the enzyme, synthesizing ATP

Nesterboy [21]

However, in a developing country like Nigeria, those 100 people could gravely impact the culture, environment, and beliefs. The Country is not established they do not have set values and 100 people is a good amount of people in a lowly populated area.
