Can the electron transport chain be found in animals or plants?

In the process of making ATP, all air-breathing animals have cells that go through the process of the Electron Transport Chain.


Which stage of cellular respiration produces the most ATP?

The Electron Transport process is the third process in cell respiration, it requires oxygen directly. The electron transport "chain" is a series of electron carriers in the membrane of the mitochondria. Through a series of reactions, the "high energy" electrons are passed to oxygen. In the process, a gradient is formed, and ultimately ATP (Adinosine triphosphate), an energy molecule is formed.Therefore this stage produces the most ATP.


How is light energy process in the light reaction of photosynthesis?

A series of molecules found in the inner membranes of mitochondria and chloroplasts through which electron pass in a process that causes protons to build up on one side of the membrane?

Why is the final process of aerobic respiration called the electron transport chain?

Oxidation in chemistry is when an electron is stripped from an atom or molecule. In this case, an electron is stripped from the phosphate group in ATP so it can be used for energy, hence oxidative phosphorylation. The electron then moves through several processes that generate energy the cell can use. That's why it is most commonly referred to as the electron transport chain.


What gets generated through the electron transport chain?

The products of the electron transport chain are water and adenosine triphosphate. ATP.


What is the significant of glycolysis?

Glycolysis is the first step in making ATP through cellular respiration. Glycolysis is broken down into pyruvate which is made into Acetyl(sp?) CoA when it goes through the mitochondrial membrane. This change creates molecules called NADH. NADH goes through the citric acid cycle which produces FADH. The NADH and the FADH carry electrons to the electron transport chain which produces ATP through phosphorylation(sp?). So.... With the process of glycolysis, your body produces ATP which allows you to live.


What form do proteins need to be in to go through the electron transport chain?

Stripped of their electrons by electron carriers. Electrons are the only thing going through the electron transport chain, where their motive force is moving protons across membranes.


What happens to electrons when pigments in photosystem II absorbs light?

they move through an electron transport chain to photosystem 1


Electron moves through electron transport chain?

Electrons move through the electron transport chain via a series of redox reactions. They move from high to lower energy levels, resulting in the pumping of hydrogen ions across the membrane.


What goes in the electron transport chain?

When light hits photosytem II (within the thylakoid), it excites electrons which move through the electron transport chain.


What is passed from protein to protein in the electron transport chain?

Energy is transferred to the chain of proteins in the electron transport. A electron transport chain is a series of compounds that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors through redox reactions.
