The electron transport chain is the aerobic step of cellular respiration. Oxygen is the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain. The last step in aerobic respiration is the bonding of 2 electrons, 2 protons, and oxygen to form water. The water leaves the electron transport chain, freeing up a place for another oxygen molecule so that the electron transport chain does not stop.

What are the two reactions of aerobic cellular respiration?

The two main reactions of aerobic cellular respiration are glycolysis, which occurs in the cytoplasm, and the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), which takes place in the mitochondria. These reactions break down glucose to produce ATP, which cells use as energy.
