What is the role of hydrogen ion gradient used for in cellular respiration in the mitochondria?
The hydrogen ion gradient is used to drive ATP synthesis. 32 to 34 molecules of ATP are produced. The hydrogen ion gradient is the result of NADH in the electron transport system of the mitochondria.
What intrinsic protein is responsible for maintaining the H ion gradient?
Proton pumps as well as ATP synthase operating in reverse maintain the hydrogen ion gradient of a cell.
Do organisms always maintain the hydrogen ion concentration gradient?
Yes, without it there would not be enough energy to produce ATP.
What is the energy of the hydrogen ion gradient created across the inner mitochondrial membrane used to make?
electron transport chain
What is the energy of hydrogen ion gradient created across the inner mitochondrial membrane used to make?
The hydrogen falls down its electrochemical gradient, from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration, through the ATP synthase and provides the force to power this synthase and synthesize ATP.

Important ion in extra cellular fluid?
A high sodium ion gradient is maintained outside the cell while a high potassium ion gradient is maintained on the inside of the cell via the sodium-potassium exchange occurring in and out of the cell because of an enzyme on the cell membrane. The most important ions in the extracellular fluid are the mentioned potassium (K+) and sodium (Na+) ions, as well as calcium (Ca+), chloride (Cl-), and Hydrogen carbonate (HCO-)

Which molecules are responsible for creating a chemiosmotic gradient?
Diffusion of ion molecules accross a permeable membrane
What is chemiosis?
The process, in which energy stored in the form of a hydrogen ion gradient across a membrane is used to drive cellular work such as synthesis of ATP.

How is a hydrogen ion gradient created in the ETC of prokaryotic cells?
hmm well, hydrogen ions fuse inside the electron carriers creating a pathway and therefore making thatpath you were wondering about. comprende?
What enzyme generates ATP using the concentration gradient of hydrogen ion?
Oxidative phosphorilation happening in the electron transfer chain.
What does hydrogen ions bind to during ATP Synthetase?
Electron Transport Chain. Molecules which carry electrons between photosystems, to build the hydrogen ion gradient to make ATP.
