'1) What is oxidative phosphorylation? 2) Thoroughly describe the electron transport chain 3) How is ATP made during oxidative phosphorylation?'
Added by Destiny G.
Step 1
It involves the transfer of electrons from NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and FADH2 (flavin adenine dinucleotide) to oxygen, which creates a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This gradient is then used to power the synthesis of Show more…
