Answer:
A proton Pump, using ATP, pumps protons outside
A steady proton gradient with a higher concentration of H+ out of the cell is maintained by the proton pump.
pH decreases;
The gradient becomes sufficient.
H+ moves down electrochemical gradient into the cell; Sucrose moves into the cell.
Explanation:
A proton Pump, using the energy of ATP hydrolysis, pumps protons outside the cell.
A steady proton gradient with a higher concentration of H+ out of the cell is maintained by the proton pump.
The continues outward pumping of protons by the proton pump causes the pH of the extracellular fluid to decrease
At some point the gradient becomes sufficient, and pH reaches a steady slightly acidic level.
H+ moves down its electrochemical gradient into the cell together with Sucrose through the hydrogen ion-sucrose co-transporter.

In this experiment in which the mechanism of sucrose uptake by plant cells immersed in a sucrose solution, and the pH of the solution is monitored, the following steps are ranked in order:
E) pH decreases.
C) H+ moves down the electrochemical gradient into the cell.
A) A proton Pump, using ATP, pumps protons outside.
D) A steady proton gradient with a higher concentration of H+ out of the cell is maintained by the proton pump.
F) The gradient becomes sufficient.
A co-transporter also called a symporter, is a carrier protein that transports a solute and an ion from one side of the membrane to the other at the same time.
The proton pump is an integral protein that builds a proton gradient across a biological membrane.
The cell cannot import sucrose by simple diffusion, the cell expends energy to move the substance against a concentration gradient.
The sodium and potassium maintain the electrochemical gradient of living cells, the direction an ion moves across a membrane is determined by the electrochemical gradient.
