Chemiosmosis uses the energy from a proton gradient to drive ATP Synthase, converting ADP to ATP, with NADH yielding 3 ATP and FADH2 yielding 2 ATP.
Chemiosmosis: - powered by proton gradient - utilizes ATP Synthetase (spins like turbine) to use proton diffusion to convert ADP into ATP - NAD produces 3 ATP, FAD produces 2
