it provides energy that powers the formation of ATP.
NADH2 donates electrons to the electron transport chain, which helps generate energy in the form of ATP during cellular respiration.
The electrons in the electron transport chain originate from the breakdown of glucose during cellular respiration.
Oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in the electron transport chain; it is the final electron acceptor (this is also what makes it either aerobic or anaerobic respiration).
Water is produced during the electron transport chain stage of cellular respiration. It is a byproduct of the electron transport chain when oxygen is the final electron acceptor, leading to the formation of water molecules.
The electron transport chain takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane during cellular respiration. It is the final stage of aerobic respiration where electrons are passed along a series of protein complexes to generate ATP.
The electron transport chain.
The electrons used in the electron transport chain come from the breakdown of molecules like glucose during cellular respiration.
O2 ADDED: Not O2, but one atom of oxygen.
The electron transport chain in cellular respiration is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane of eukaryotic cells and the plasma membrane of prokaryotic cells.

Electron Transport SystemThe electron transport chain
Most of the ATP is produced during the electron transport chain stage of cellular respiration. This is where the majority of ATP molecules are generated through oxidative phosphorylation using energy released from the transfer of electrons along the electron transport chain.
