Oxidative phosphorylation requires the presence of oxygen, which serves as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain. It also necessitates a gradient of protons (H⁺ ions) across the inner mitochondrial membrane, created by the electron transport chain's activity. Additionally, the enzyme ATP synthase is essential for synthesizing ATP as protons flow back into the mitochondrial matrix. Lastly, the presence of substrates such as NADH and FADH₂ is needed to provide electrons to the electron transport chain.

Is oxidative phosphorylation necessary for metabolism function?

Yes, oxidative phosphorylation is a vital part of cellular metabolism as it produces the majority of ATP in aerobic organisms. ATP is the primary energy source for cellular processes, making oxidative phosphorylation crucial for overall metabolism function.


What does the ETC do in plants?

Photosynthetic ETC takes place in thylakoid membranes membranes in chloroplast. Like ETC in mitochondria, light reaction in photosynthesis transport electrons across the photosystems. This yields high energy electron donor, NADPH (unlike in oxidative phosporylation where electrons are transferred from electron donor NADH)
