Which of the following gains electrons at the end of oxidative phosphorylation?
Correct answer: A. Oxygen
- A. Oxygen
- B. Carbon
- C. Hyrogen
- D. None of these
Explanation
Oxidative phosphorylation involves the release of energy in the form of ATP when reduced coenzymes (NADH, FADH2) pass through a series of electron carriers to get oxidized and lose their electrons to a final electron acceptor i.e. oxygen, which is reduced to form water.
