Protons are pumped across the mitochondrial inner membrane to accumulate in the

  • mitochondrial matrix.
  • intermembrane space. (correct)
  • cytosol.

In oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria, high-energy electrons are transferred to the electron-transport chain from activated carriers like NADH. Stage 1 of photosynthesis also uses an electron-transport chain to pump protons and make ATP. In this case, where do the high-energy electrons come from?
