Chapter 25, Problem 10RQ
Summary Introduction
To define:
The term oxidative phosphorylation and discuss the involvement of electron transport chain and chemiosmosis in this process.
Introduction: The transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH2 to O2 through a series of electron carriers which leads to the formation of ATP used by cells is known as oxidative phosphorylation.
