Question

Draw a model that shows the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis convert energy.

Show how energy enters each process and how it leaves it. If energy converts from one type to another be sure to describe it briefly in a label.

Answer 1

The image shows Chemiosmosis in chloroplast where light energy is converted into electrical when electron is transferring from one carrier to other. To electrochemical H+ ion concentration increases in lumen of thylakoids due to electron transfer as it loses energy moving from one carrier to other down the reduction potential scale. To chemical in the form of high energy bonds of ATP, formed by breaking the electrochemical gradient formed previously across the thylakoid membrane.
