In cellular respiration the final electron acceptor is?
O2 ADDED: Not O2, but one atom of oxygen.
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 gas must be present for the aerobic breakdown of glucose to occur?
Oxygen, the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration.
What is the ultimate electron acceptor in aerobic respiration?
oxygen
Does electron transport chain need oxygen?
Yes. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor of the electron transfer chain due to its high electronegativity.
What is the final electron acceptor in respiration?
In aerobic respiration it is oxygen.
What are the final electron acceptors in aerobic?
The final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration is oxygen, which turns into H20.
What are the final electron receptor molecules involved in anaerobic and aerobic respiration?
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.
What is the terminal electron acceptor in aerobic cellular respiration?
NAD+ is the first electron acceptor in cellular respiration (O2 is the final acceptor).
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....
In cellular respiration the final electron acceptor is?

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 gas must be present for the aerobic breakdown of glucose to occur?
Oxygen, the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration.
What is the ultimate electron acceptor in aerobic respiration?
oxygen
What happens when that final electron acceptor accepts electrons from the electron transport chain?
Hydrogen ions are pumped across the mitochondria's inner membrane producing a concentration gradient
Which pathway requires oxygen as the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration?
the citric acid cycle, glycolysis, and pyruvate oxidation
Why is oxygen nessecary in cellular respiration?
Oxygen is necessary for aerobic respiration only . It is not required in anaerobic respiration . Oxygen is final electron acceptor and it forms water at end of E.T.C.
