Which outcome is favored because a high concentration gradient of hydrogen ions exists across a thylakoid membrane?

💡 Explanation

Increased ATP synthase activity results because proton-motive force, which stems from chemiosmosis, harnesses the electrochemical gradient (high concentration difference) across the membrane; therefore, ATP is efficiently generated, rather than alternatives inefficiently using fewer ions.
