∙ 12y agoThe final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain during aerobic respiration is oxygen. Without oxygen, the electron transport chain backs up and no ATP is formed, so the cells run out of energy. This is what happens when organisms die from lack of oxygen.

Oxygen, because it is highly electronegative.

Oxygen, the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration.
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.
Yes. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor of the electron transfer chain due to its high electronegativity.
ATP
Oxygen in aerobic respiration.
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen to operate (whereas anaerobic respiration does not), and oxygen is the electron acceptor.
In aerobic respiration it is oxygen.
oxygen
NAD+ is the first electron acceptor in cellular respiration (O2 is the final acceptor).
oxygen
The final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration is oxygen, which turns into H20.
Aerobic respiration - final electron acceptor is oxygen (O) Anaerobic respiration - final electron acceptor can besulfate (SO42-), nitrate (NO3-), sulfur (S), or fumarate....
Because oxygen is the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, the electron transport chain makes aerobic respiration aerobic.
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.
Oxygen, because it is highly electronegative.
