What is the product of the ETC in animals?

Correct answer: C. Water

  • A. Oxygen
  • B. Carbon dioxide
  • C. Water
  • D. All of these

Explanation

The electron transport chain (ETC) is the final stage of cellular respiration. In this process, oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor, combining with electrons and protons to form water. Therefore, water is the main product of the ETC. Oxygen is not a product but a reactant, and carbon dioxide is released during the Krebs cycle, not the ETC. Hence, the correct answer is Water.
