The statement that best describes the process of chemiosmosis and the direct result of its occurrence is :

Hydrogen ions flow from the thylakoid down a concentration gradient through ATP synthase channels into the stroma. ADP is converted to ATP.

Option A is correct. Chemiosmosis can be best described by the  hydrogen ions flow from the thylakoid down a concentration gradient through ATP synthase channels into the stroma.

During the light reaction:

  • A concentration gradient is formed in the thallacoid membrane.
  • The hydrogen is transferred to the stroma down the concentration gradient.
  • This happened via ATP synthase channel.
  • During this ATP is formed from ADP.

From the explanation we can say that Option B, C, and D can be eliminated.

Therefore the statement best describes the process of chemiosmosis is when hydrogen ions flow from the thylakoid down a concentration gradient through ATP synthase channels into the stroma. ADP is converted to ATP.
