Solution

The correct option is A Endergonic; Chemiosmosis
Endergonic reactions are energy absorbing reactions, during the formation of ATP, iP is added to ADP using energy. So, formation of ATP is an endergonic reaction and it occurs through a process of chemiosmosis.
So, the correct answer is 'Endergonic; Chemiosmosis'

Q. If a solution of actin is mixed with a solution of myosin, the resulting mixture becomes very viscous. If ATP is added to this viscous mixture, the viscosity is eliminated and ATP is hydrolysed to ADP and inorganic phosphate. The mixture regains viscosity if all the ATP is hydrolysed. These observations suggest that
