In mitochondria, the inner membrane separates the intermembrane space from the matrix. During cellular respiration, protons accumulate in the intermembrane space, creating a higher proton concentration than in the matrix. When a chemical uncoupler makes the inner membrane permeable to protons, oxygen consumption continues but ATP production drops. Which feature best explains how this compartmentalization normally supports ATP synthesis?
