In the electron transport chain, electrons move along a series of protein complexes, releasing energy that is used to pump protons across a membrane. This creates a proton gradient that drives the production of ATP, the cell's main energy source.
The electrons in the electron transport chain originate from the breakdown of glucose during cellular respiration.
The electrons used in the electron transport chain come from the breakdown of molecules like glucose during cellular respiration.
The complex in the electron transport chain that transfers electrons to the final electron acceptor is called Complex IV, also known as cytochrome c oxidase.
Water is a byproduct of the electron transport chain during cellular respiration. It is formed when oxygen combines with electrons and hydrogen ions to produce water molecules.
When electrons leave the electron transport chain in cellular respiration and bind to the final electron acceptor (such as oxygen), water is produced as a byproduct. This process is essential for the creation of energy in the form of ATP.
The electrons in the electron transport chain originate from the breakdown of glucose during cellular respiration.
The electrons are passed down the electron transport chain for use in ATP production.
Oxygen accepts the electrons at the end of the electron transport chain, ultimately forming water.
The electron transport chain is also known as the respiratory chain. NADH carries electrons in the form of hydrogen atoms to the electron transport chain.
The electrons used in the electron transport chain come from the breakdown of molecules like glucose during cellular respiration.
Oxygen has the greatest attraction for electrons in the electron transport chain. It serves as the final electron acceptor, leading to the formation of water.
an electron transport chain.
Photosystem I
Energy is transferred to the chain of proteins in the electron transport. A electron transport chain is a series of compounds that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors through redox reactions.
The complex in the electron transport chain that transfers electrons to the final electron acceptor is called Complex IV, also known as cytochrome c oxidase.
The combination of substances that is initially added to the electron transport chain is NADH and FADH2. These molecules carry electrons from previous steps in cellular respiration to the electron transport chain, where they donate their electrons to the chain to generate ATP.
False. Oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain.
