The electron transport chain is the pathway that requires oxygen as the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration. Oxygen acts as the terminal electron acceptor to form water, enabling the production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
The electron acceptor for humans in the electron transport chain is oxygen.
In aerobic respiration, the final electron acceptor is (usually) oxygen. Sometimes it can be sulfur or nitrogen in the absence of oxygen (as in extreme environments) in extremophiles.

O2 ADDED: Not O2, but one atom of oxygen.
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen to operate (whereas anaerobic respiration does not), and oxygen is the electron acceptor.
No, oxygen is the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain.
Oxygen
The citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain are the steps in aerobic cellular respiration that require oxygen. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, where it helps generate ATP by facilitating the transfer of electrons from NADH and FADH2 to oxygen.

The final electron acceptor is oxygen.
Oxygen is considered the ultimate electron acceptor in aerobic respiration. It accepts electrons at the end of the electron transport chain, forming water as a byproduct.
