During electron transport system (ETS), electron transport proceeds from carriers that have redox potential to those having redox potential. This electron transport down the energy gradient leads to the formation of ATP from ADP and Pi, which is referred to as .

Answer: (C)

Solution

Along the respiratory chain, electrons move from carriers with a stronger electron-donating/reducing tendency (NADH/FADH2 end) toward carriers with a progressively weaker reducing tendency, finally reaching O2 (the strongest oxidant, weakest reductant, of the series);
