Document Summary

Relative location of electron transport chain components relative to mitochondrial membrane, matrix, intermembrane space. Etc occurs in the inner membrane that faces the matrix of the mitochondria and protons move from the intermembrane space matrix back and forth. Oxygen in electron transport acts as the electron acceptor in the transport chain; when electrons go through the protein complexes, oxygen is at the end to accept the final electron. The oxygen then binds with h+ to make water: role of nadh in electron transport. The nadh in electron transport chain is what supplies the chain with electrons. It has a very low redox potential; therefore it is extremely easy to oxidize": role of cofactors in etc. Electron"s energy is used to pump h+ ions from matrix to intermembrane space. In order for those protons to get back in the matrix, they go through the atp synthase pump.
