oxygen is used to pull electrons down to the Electron Transport Chain which pumps H+ to create H+ gradient :)
Oxygen:
O2 + 4e- + 4 H+ --> 2 H2O

NADP+
In cellular respiration, the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain is half of a diatomic oxygen molecule. This molecule is then reduced when it gains two low-energy electrons attached to two hydrogens, making a molecule of water as a by-product of cellular respiration.
No, because the electron acceptor is what cates the electrons as the leave the electron transport chain, which is oxygen in aerobic respiration. Since aerobic respiration uses oxygen, and anaerobic fermentation is abest of oxygen, anaerobic fermentation cannot possibly use oxygen as respiration does.
The answer to your question is oxygen. It accepts those electrons and is converted to water. The carbon dioxide you exhale comes from the food that you eat.
Hydrogen ions are pumped across the mitochondria's inner membrane producing a concentration gradient
Aerobes use oxygen as the final electron acceptor in electron transport phosphorylation. The process that yields a final product called lactate fermentation.
It is the final electron receptor in the process of cellular respiration.
Oxygen is required to live without it we die
In aerobic respiration, the final electron acceptor is molecular oxygen O2. With anaerobic respiration, the final electron acceptor is a molecule other than oxygen, such as an organic substance.
O2 ADDED: Not O2, but one atom of oxygen.
NAD+ is the first electron acceptor in cellular respiration (O2 is the final acceptor).
Oxygen from the air is needed in the body for cellular respiration. Oxygen serves as the final electron receptor in the Electron Transport Chain, which produces ATP for the body to use as energy.
Oxygen, in complex IV.
Oxygen.
anaerobic cellular respiration has 3 different stages, and their final electron acceptors are: pyruvate oxidation- NAD+ Krebs cycle- NAD+, FAD+ electron transport chain- Oxygen
NADP in photosynthesis, and oxygen in cellular respiration.
In cellular respiration, the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain is half of a diatomic oxygen molecule. This molecule is then reduced when it gains two low-energy electrons attached to two hydrogens, making a molecule of water as a by-product of cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration requires a macromolecule to be broken down (usually glucose) and a final electron acceptor for the end of the electron transport chain (usually oxygen in most organisms). The reactants are a product of photosynthesis.
