Question

Is CO₂ produced in oxidative phosphorylation?

Answer 1

Oxidative phosphorylation:

1. Oxidative phosphorylation in the electron transport system produces ATP.
2. The last phase of cellular respiration is called oxidative phosphorylation.
3. In the mitochondria, it happens.
4. It is associated with the electron transport chain process.
5. The inner mitochondrial membrane contains the electron transport system.
6. In the process of oxidative phosphorylation, oxygen is consumed as electrons are transported along the mitochondrial electron transport chain and ATP is produced.
7. Through a sequence of redox processes, the electrons are moved from one component of the transport chain to another.
