A tomato plant is mutated with gamma radiation. a cellular analysis reveals that atp synthase complexes found in the thylakoid membrane are inserted backwards into the membrane. what is the most likely outcome of this error?

The outcome of this error would be that the gradient of the proton in the thykaloid space would not be able to be used to produce ATP. This is because the ATP synthase was inserted in a backward position to the membrane which would cause for protons to the build up in the thykaloid space.
