Answer

Answer: (A) It is used for the synthesis of ATP.
(C) It includes a pH gradient component.

Explanation:
The electromotive force generated by the electron transport chain is used to produce ATP through chemiosmosis and involves both a pH gradient (proton gradient) and an electrical potential gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane.
