<span>To avoid body damage to the digestive system, the liver produces bile which is being stored in the gallbladder and then releases into the small intestines.
Bile will neutralize the acidic contents which are coming from the stomach by creating an alkaline environment where the intestinal enzymes need to work. The hydrochloric acid which is produced in the stomach increases the acidity of stomach PH for stomach enzymes to digest food. The digestive enzymes which are formed in the small intestine are then damaged by strongly acidic conditions.</span>

Nataly [62]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

The light-dependent reaction of the photosynthesis process takes place in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

The electron transport chain takes place in the thylakoid membrane which leads to the flow of protons out of the membrane producing the disequilibrium in the membrane potential across the membrane. This difference in the membrane potential results in the flow of protons which help in the synthesis of ATP.

If the thylakoid membrane is punctured will disturb the membrane potential across the membrane.  This will lead to the disturbance in the flow of protons into and out of the cell which will affect the synthesis of ATP by ATP synthase enzyme.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
