Electron Transport Chain
Reduced NAD and Reduce FAD release electrons into the chain
The flow of hydrogen ions (protons) down the concentration gradient through ATP synthetase, providing energy to produce ATP
Oxygen is the final electron acceptor, it combines with the hydrogen to form water. If oxygen is not present hydrogen cannot pass through so less ATP produced
