Question

oxidative phosphorylation is responsible for nearly all the atp produced in your body. select the three true statements about oxidative phosphorylation. oxidative phosphorylation is the second step in aerobic respiration, occurring after glycolysis but before the citric acid cycle. some, but not all, of oxidative phosphorylation occurs inside mitochondria. nadh and fadh₂ deliver electrons to the electron transport chain during oxidative phosphorylation. without oxygen, oxidative phosphorylation would not occur. chemiosmosis is the final step in oxidative phosphorylation.

Explanation:

1. In oxidative phosphorylation, NADH and FADH₂ donate electrons to the electron - transport chain. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor, so without oxygen, oxidative phosphorylation cannot occur. Chemiosmosis is the final step where ATP is synthesized using the proton - motive force established during the electron - transport chain.
2. Oxidative phosphorylation is the third step in aerobic respiration, after glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. All of oxidative phosphorylation occurs inside mitochondria.

Answer:

C. NADH and FADH₂ deliver electrons to the electron transport chain during oxidative phosphorylation.
D. Without oxygen, oxidative phosphorylation would not occur.
E. Chemiosmosis is the final step in oxidative phosphorylation.
