Solution

The correct option is A Oxygen
Electron Transport chain (ETC)

$\to$ ETC is the final common pathways in aerobic cells by which electrons derived from various substrates are transferred to oxygen.

$\to$ It is a series of an oxidation-reduction reaction.

$\to$ The enzyme complexes 1-IV are carriers of electron while V is responsible for ATP synthesis.

$\to$ NADH, Coenzyme Q, Cytochrome C and Oxygen are mobile $e^{-}$ carriers.

$\to$ These are collectively involved in the transport of $e^{-}$ which ultimately combines with $O_{2}$ , to produce water.
