Answer:

The ATP synthase (or F1F0 ATPase and also referred to as complex V) uses the free energy of an electrochemical gradient of protons (or sodium ions) generated by the respiratory chain to synthesize ATP. The ATP synthases comprise a very large group of highly conserved enzymes that are found in the bacterial cytoplasmic membranes, the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, and the inner membranes of mitochondria. Most members of the group use H+ as the coupling ion (the Propionigenium modestum enzyme is an example of the few ATP synthases that can use Na+ as the physiological coupling ion).

Hope it helps you dude.

Stay safe!
