unit 2 exam 2025 - 26
the goal of the electron transport chain is to
create atp and water
use up carbon dioxide and atp
provide oxygen for the cell
synthesis glucose for energy
The electron - transport chain in cellular respiration uses high - energy electrons from NADH and FADH₂ to pump protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane, creating an electrochemical gradient. This gradient is used by ATP synthase to produce ATP. Also, at the end of the electron - transport chain, electrons combine with oxygen and protons to form water.
