    If the inner mitochondrial membrane were to become permeable to protons, what would be the MOST immediate consequence on ATP synthesis?

    A

    ATP synthesis would increase due to increased proton flow.

    B

    ATP synthesis would stop because the proton gradient would dissipate.

    C

    ATP synthesis would be unaffected as it relies on substrate-level phosphorylation.

    D

    ATP synthesis would decrease, but some ATP would still be produced by glycolysis.
