QUESTION: Briefly summarize the steps in the electron transport chain from NADH to oxygen.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 3
The electron transport chain is a very complex process in which a series of protein complexes and other molecules transfer electrons using redox reactions and the coupling of this process occurs with the proton transfer across a membrane.
The driving force behind the redox reactions is Gibbs free energy change of reactants and products.
