Best Answer

This depends on whether you are a eukaryote, bacteria or archaea. In eukaryotes, the electron transport chain components are on the mitochondrial membrane.In bacteria and archaea, since there are no membrane-enclosed compartments, they are on the cellular membrane.

How does cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells differ from cellular respiration in prokayotic cells?

The electron transport chain (ETC) is on/in the innermost membrane of the mitochondrion and/or chloroplast (i.e. plants and photosynthesizing protists like algae), which are organelles of a eukaryotic cell. It's actually embedded into the inner membrane of a mitochondria or the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast which plays a part in keeping the gradient that the ETC produces (remember, it's purpose is the push H+ against its gradient using electron energy).
