Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a byproduct of oxidative phosphorylation?
  • Step 1: Understand that oxidative phosphorylation is a process that occurs in the mitochondria of cells.
  • Step 2: Know that this process involves the transfer of electrons through a series of proteins.
  • Step 3: Recognize that oxygen is the final electron acceptor in this process.
  • Step 4: Remember that when electrons combine with oxygen, they also combine with protons (H+ ions).
