Chapter 7 Oxidative Phosphorylation
You Must Know How electrons from NADH and FADH 2 are passed to a series of electron acceptors to produce ATP by chemiosmosis. The roles of the mitochondrial membrane, proton (H + ) gradient, and ATP synthase in generating ATP.

ATP synthase uses the exergonic flow of H to drive phosphorylation of ATP.
