8. The following diagram shows the electron transport chain (ETC) of photosynthesis:

Figure 1d. The Electron Transport Chain of the Light Reactions. The top half of the diagram

represents the inside of the thylakoid disc, while the bottom half represents the stroma.

These are separated by the thylakoid membrane

The drug DNP causes pores to form in the membrane of the thylakoid disc allowing H+ to freely diffuse across the membrane. You isolate chloroplasts and begin to expose them to light (assume you have all the raw materials necessary for the light reactions to occur). After 20 minutes, you add DNP to the chloroplasts (the DNP is able to cross the outside membrane of the chloroplast to reach the thylakoid discs). You continue to expose the sample to light.
