Interpretation:

The reason for NADH to produce 2.5 ATP and FADH2 to produce 1.5 ATP in the electron transport chain needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

ATP refers to a complex organic molecule that has the ability to provide energy to drive many processes in the living cells such as muscle contraction and chemical synthesis. The term electron transport chain refers to a series of complexes having the ability to transfer electrons between electron donors and electron acceptors via redox reactions. The transferred electrons get coupled with protons transfer across the membrane.
