A final electron acceptor that is a stronger oxidizing agent than the last oxidizing agent in the electron transport chain is needed to remove low-energy electrons from the chain so that new high energy electrons can enter the chain to generate more ATPs. Without a final electron acceptor the electron transport chain will be backed up with low energy electrons and eventually no ATP can be generated since no new electron can enter the chain.
Last electron acceptor is O2.H2O is produced as a result.
it is the final electron acceptor and then goes on to bond with two hydrogen molecules to make water or H2O The role of oxygen in cellular respiration? It removes electrons from the electron transport chain.
The oxygen is needed to break the sugar down.C6H12O6 + O2 => CO2 + H2O + EnergyMore specifically, in the electron transport chain, electrons are being transferred from one carrier to another. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor and is then released as water molecules. The only reason we need to breathe is so that we can have the oxygen molecules there to be the final electron acceptors.
All living cells need food and a terminal electron acceptor for its energy producing chemical reactions. Food gives cells energy and the molecular building blocks to maintain the cellular structure and components. In cells that use require oxygen to survive, oxygen acts as the terminal electron acceptor, in the process producing water and carbon dioxide as waste. In cells that can survive without oxygen, pyruvate becomes the terminal electron receptor, in the process producing ethanol as waste. Deep-sea organisms can also use sulfur instead of oxygen as the terminal electron receptor.
We need to study the details of a bacterium or virus
Oxygen is the final electron acceptor. Oxygen, with it's great electronegativity, pulls electrons through the electron transport chain where these electrons provide the motive force to pump protons into the outer lumen of the mitochondria. When these protons fall down their concentration gradient oxygen is there to pick then up with the electrons and form water.
It is the last electron acceptor
Yes. Oxygen is the final electron acceptor of the electron transfer chain due to its high electronegativity.
Because oxygen is the last electron acceptor
Last electron acceptor is O2.H2O is produced as a result.
They need gas Oxygen. It is used as last electron acceptor
Just like us , every living thing needs air , food and water . Without any of the three things , they will die after some time . So animals need to breathe , if not they will die!!!!so they dont die, animals need oxygen like us humans.Animals breathe because they are also humans . They breathe air to live .

the krebs cycle and electron transport chains that provide the majority of the ATP gain require oxidative phosphorilation, the oxygen plays the part of a electron acceptor at the end of the etc
depends on wether it's in plants or animals. plants need sunlight, NAD+, ADP and H2O. Animals need water, ATP and NADPH (or NAD+) along with O2 as a terminal electron acceptor.
