A)from the stroma into the cytosol
B)from the matrix into the stroma
C)from the stroma into the thylakoid space
D)from the intermembrane space into the stroma
E)from the thylakoid space to into the stroma

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In chloroplasts during chemiosmosis, protons flow from the thylakoid space into the stroma. This gradient drives ATP synthesis similarly to how the proton gradient in mitochondria drives ATP synthesis, but the compartments involved and their spatial arrangements are different.
