In chloroplasts, protons are actively pumped from
1. the intermembrane space to the matrix.
2. the matrix to the stroma.
3. the stroma to the thylakoid space.
4. the thylakoid space to the intermembrane space.

The primary function of the Calvin cycle is to:
1. use ATP to release carbon dioxide
2. use NADPH to release carbon dioxide
3. split water and release oxygen
4. fix inorganic carbon to simple sugars

Chemiosmosis in chloroplasts is possible because of:

1. establishment of a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane.
2. diffusion of electrons through the ATP synthase.
3. osmosis of water from thylakoid to stroma.
4. presence of large amount of oxygen in the stroma.
