The electron transport chain is also known as the respiratory chain.


The term for free electrons in metals transferring energy by colliding with other atoms or electrons?

The term is "electron diffusion." In metals, free electrons can transfer energy through collisions with other atoms or electrons, leading to a net movement of charge known as electron diffusion.


What is free electron diffusion?

Free electron diffusion is the movement of electrons in a material due to variations in electron concentration. It occurs when electrons move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration in order to establish equilibrium. This process is important in the conduction of electricity in materials.

What is the process of spreading new ideas called?

Diffusion is the process of spreading new ideas from culture to culture. Examples of diffusion include the use of cars and the smelting of iron. There are five main types of diffusion they are: Expansion diffusion, Relocation diffusion, Hierarchal diffusion, Congious diffusion and Stimulus diffusion.


How are chloroplasts and chlorophyll and stomata all part of photosynthesis?

Cholorophyll are the green pigment inside the chloroplasts which, due to there Mg 2+ ion, loses an electron in the light-dependant reaction. Those electrons pass down the electron transport chain and activate ATP synthase to create ATP for the Dark-reaction (plus other oxidised coenzymes like FADH2). Stomata open to let in Carbon dioxide into the leaf by diffusion and let out oxygen (and water) by diffusion.


Is diffusion a passive transport?
