Glycolysis is a biochemical process in which a molecule of glucose (containing 6 carbon atoms) is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate (containing 3 carbon atoms) The process is merely a catabolic pathway. There is no transport of electrons as such.
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.
O2 ADDED: Not O2, but one atom of oxygen.
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.
Oxygen, because it is highly electronegative.
The final hydrogen acceptor in the electron transport chain is Oxygen. It comes from the ionization of water. Hope this helps. The final hydrogen acceptor in the electron transport chain is Oxygen. It comes from the ionization of water. Hope this helps.
Pyruvate
Aerobes use oxygen as the final electron acceptor in electron transport phosphorylation. The process that yields a final product called lactate fermentation.
Fermentation does not require the electron transport chain (ETC) as it does not rely on oxygen as the final electron acceptor. Instead, fermentation relies on substrate-level phosphorylation to produce energy in the absence of oxygen.
No, fermentation does not involve an electron transport chain. Instead, it is a metabolic process that generates ATP without the use of oxygen by using an organic molecule as the final electron acceptor.
No, oxygen is the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain.
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.
No, chlamydia doesn't have a final electron acceptor. That is why it needs to live within the host cells
Oxygen
False. Oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain.
