Water Is Like Electricity

a: Proton motive force ~
b: water presure accross a dam

What: This is a common association for electricity. Electricity moving through a circuit is like water moving through pipe. The narrower the pipe the faster the water can move.

The difference forms an electrical potential that a cell can use to create high energy ATP.
