10. The chloroplast has a couple of different spaces – the lumen of the thylakoid and the stroma. Explain why it is essential to have these spaces separated by membranes.

A. Describe would happen if there was a mutation to the ATP synthase enzyme used in cellular respiration. in your answer tell what would happen inside the mitochondria where cellular respiration occurs, and also tell what will happen to the cell because of this mutation.

B. Describe the flow (steps) of energy transformation starting when a hawk consumes a rodent and ending with the formation of ATP in its cells.

C. Give an example of a coupled reaction that occurs in the human body. Explain why this is a coupled reaction, think as ATP/energy.

I know that this alot of questions, but it's kinda a last ditch effort. these are the last 42 definitions i have left to answer out of 500 question for my final exam study guide. so whatever help i can get is fine. No explanations needed just what each definition is explaining and thanks in advance ladies and gentlemen.
