Why is it important that hydrogen ions are continually released to the outside of the mitochondrion as electrons are moved through the electron transport chain?
Multiple choice question.
A)
Hydrogens outside of the mitochondrion attract electrons and deliver them to transport proteins in the electron transport chain. More external hydrogen ions can attract more electrons.
B)
Mitochondria must create and maintain a proton gradient, where the higher concentration of external hydrogen ions will cause the protons to move back through ATP synthase in attempt to balance the gradient.
C)
Oxygen can’t be oxidized if there are hydrogen ions inside the mitochondrion, so the ions must be exported to allow oxygen to act as the final electron acceptor.
D)
Hydrogen ions must remain in high concentration outside of the mitochondrion to attract electrons to the end of the electron transport chain.
E)
Cells must maintain an equal concentration of hydrogen ions inside and outside the mitochondria to synthesize ATP.

The images show two species of tree frogs in a particular region. the gray tree frogs are adapted to the trees of the woodlands, while the green tree frogs can survive in woodlands or grasslands. the gray frog was abundant in the woodlands. because of climatic changes, most of the trees in the region died, and the woodlands changed to grasslands. in such a case, the . the gray tree frog is closely related to the green tree frog genetically, but they have different mating calls. this suggests that speciation occurred because of .
