ETC is the common pathway for all the processes which results in the production of reduced form of high energy carrying molecules like NADH ,FADH2 in to ATP.

The all processes which release these energy molecules are as follows

  1. Glycolysis: which releases two NADH and two ATPs
  2. Pyruvate oxidation: releases two NADH
  3. Citric acid cycle: releases six NADH and Two FADH and two ATPs

The Electron Transport Chain produces ATP.

Extra Information:

The ATP produced by the ETC is used in the Calvin Cycle. The Calvin Cycle requires CO2 and NADPH as well for it to work. The Calvin Cycle then produces Glucose (Sugars). The left over Glucose is then used and made as Starch.

What happens to electrons in the electron chain?

Oxygen (O2) is the electron acceptor in the Electron Transport Chain. "The electrons are passed to O2, the final electron acceptor of the electron transport system. This oxygen, now negatively charged because it has acquired additional electrons, combines with H+ ions, which are positively charged because they donated electrons at the beginning of the electron transport system, to form H2O." (Sherwood 36) References: Sherwood, Lauralee. Human Physiology: from Cells to Systems. 7th ed. Australia: Brooks/Cole, Cengage Learning, 2010. Print.

Why is cyanide lethal to the electron transport chain?

Its electronegativity allows it to bind to cytochrome c (an electron-carrying protein) which blocks this cytochrome from receiving other electrons that pass down the electron transport chain to produce energy in the form of ATP. This is much like a bucket brigade: people in a line passing down a bucket to the place of the fire much like that of an assembly line. If one person in the middle of the line doesn't pass on his bucket, the line backs up. In this sense electrons back up and no further ATP is being produced after a while. Thus cyanide is lethal because it prevents production of ATP and a person dies because it is deprived of chemical energy to perform the many numerous processes that sustain life.
