ATP production during respiration Energized membrane ++++++十+ ADP Less energized membrane (b)Oxidative phosphorylation In respiration,the cytoplasmic membrane,energized by the proton motive force,dissipates some of that energy in the formation of ATP from ADP.The coupling of the proton motive force to ATP synthesis occurs by way of ATP synthase(ATPase)ATP production during respiration In respiration, the cytoplasmic membrane, energized by the proton motive force, dissipates some of that energy in the formation of ATP from ADP.
