Where does the electron transport chain take place during cellular respiration?

In the inner mitochondrial membrane- Cristae.


The electron transport chains of cellular respiration are located?

This depends on whether you are a eukaryote, bacteria or archaea. In eukaryotes, the electron transport chain components are on the mitochondrial membrane.In bacteria and archaea, since there are no membrane-enclosed compartments, they are on the cellular membrane.


Where in the cell does the electron transport occur?

Mitochondria in animals; the chloroplasts in plants.


Where is the electron transport chain at?

Inner Mitochondrial Matrix


Where is the primary role of oxygen in cellular respiration chain located?

The primary role of oxygen in aerobic respiration is to be the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain. This occurs at the mitochondrial inner membrane.


Identify the location of the stages of aerobic cellular respiration?

Cytoplasm = GlycolysisMitochondrial Matrix = Citric Acid Cycle/ Krebs cycleInner Mitochondrial Membrane = Electron transport


Order of cellular respiration?

order of cellular respiration is 1st Glycolysis in cytoplasm, next either anaerobic or aerobic pathway. In anaerobic, its either Ethanol or Lactic acid fermentation. in aerobic next is kreb's cycle in mitochondrial matrix and finally electron transport chain on surface of inner mitochondrial membrane.

Where in the mitochondria does the electron transport system occur?

Inner mitochondrial membrane.


The oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in what process?

Oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in the electron transport chain; it is the final electron acceptor (this is also what makes it either aerobic or anaerobic respiration).
