Question
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
Brief Explanations
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.
