No, FADH2 is in the "accepted" state. FADH+ is the form of the molecule that is able to accept electrons.

Why is the electron transport chain characterized as aerobic?
Aerobic respiration - final electron acceptor is oxygen (O) Anaerobic respiration - final electron acceptor can besulfate (SO42-), nitrate (NO3-), sulfur (S), or fumarate....
Where does the electron transport chain get its electrons from?
it gets electrons[2 eletrons from NADH and 2 electrons from FADH2] from NADH and FADH2....In case of NADH- it is directly from glycolysis but in case of FADH2-it is not directly attached to ETC but succinate is oxidised to fumarate realising FADH2
What is the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain that functions in aerobic oxidative phosphorylation?
oxygen
Is the following sentence true or false hydrogen servers as the final electron acceptor of the electron transports chain?
False
When does the muscle of the heart gets is blood supply?
Of course heart muscles need a blood supply for the cellular respiratory process as the blood carries the final electron acceptor oxygen which is key to oxidative phosphorylation in humans.
Which molecule could be termed the final resting place last molecule to be reduced final electron acceptor of the electrons donated by nadh and fadh2 to the etc?
oxygen
What is FADH?
FADH2 (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide) is an electron accepter that is utilized in cellular respiration. FADH2 is produced during the Krebs cycle of cellular respiration. It then brings the electrons to the cytochrome complex. Electrons accepted by FADH2 enter the cytochrome complex later than electrons accepted by NADH, and therefore produce less ATP.
What is required to start and what is produced by the hydrogen and electron transport system?
The proteins involved in the chain, complete with ATP synthase in the end for oxidative phosphorylation, some electron carriers like NADH and FADH2, and the final electron acceptors such as O2.
Does hydrogen serve as the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain?
No, oxygen is the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain.
When is FADH2 produced?
In the Krebs Cycle also known as the Citric Acid Cycle\ FDH2, Reduced form of Flavin adenosine dinucleotide, is an electron donor-acceptor molecules that can transfer the energy (bond) from one molecule to the next, and you are most likely to find it in oxidative phosphorylation process (these are the process where oxygen is the final electron acceptor to form ATP). in the metabolism of fat and glucose FADH2 is produce during Beta oxidation and in the citric acid cycle general mechanism: Fatty acid C16 + FAD^+ ====> Fatty acid C14 + acetyl-Coa +FADH2 Succinate + FAD^+ ====> Fumarate + FADH2
What is the terminal electron acceptor in aerobic cellular respiration?
NAD+ is the first electron acceptor in cellular respiration (O2 is the final acceptor).
Electrons are brought to the electron transport by what high energy electron carriers?
NADP if photosynthesis. NAD or FAD if cellular respiration.
What molecule is the final electron acceptor at the end to the electron transport chain?
In aerobic respiration, the final electron acceptor is (usually) oxygen. Sometimes it can be sulfur or nitrogen in the absence of oxygen (as in extreme environments) in extremophiles.
What happens when an excited electron is passed to an electron acceptor in a photosystem?
When an excited electron is passed to an electron acceptor in a photosystem, energy in sunlight is transformed to chemical energy.
What is the most abundant acceptor released in the Kreb cycle?
A total of five 'loaded' acceptor molecules are formed, (four NADH and one FADH2) for each pyruvate molecule. Making a total of 10 'loaded' acceptor molecules because two pyruvate's are used. Therefore the most abundant acceptor released in the Kreb cycle is NADH (4 of them) vs only one FADH2.
Is the element helium an electron donor or acceptor?
Neither. Helium doesn't form compounds and is neither an electron donor nor an electron acceptor.
The final acceptor of electrons in the electron transport chain is?
oxygen
