36. Which statement about ATP synthesis in mitochondria is false?
(A) To form proton gradient for ATP synthesis in mitochondria requires various proteins that serve as electron
carriers to be oriented asymmetrically with respect to the two sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane.
(B) The proton gradient that is generated by electron transfer reactions is used to induce a conformational
change in the ATP synthase.
(C) Evidence for chemiosmotic coupling as the mechanism for ATP synthesis is based on the observation that
many different kinds of substances can serve as uncouplers.
(D) The Fo part of the ATP synthase serves as a proton channel, and the F part of the ATP synthase is the site of
ATP formation.
(E) None of above is false.
