The synthesis of ATP in mitochondria requires
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A Oxygen
Oxidative phosphorylation works in mitochondria by using energy-releasing chemical reactions drive energy-requiring reactions. The flow of electrons through the electron transport chain, form electron donors such as NADH to electron acceptors such as oxygen, is an exergonic process. It releases energy, whereas the synthesis of ATP is an endergonic process, which requires an input of energy.
