TRANSCRIPT
Electron Transport Chain
Summary:
Protons (H+ ions) are pumped into the intermembrane space as electrons move
through chains of complexes.
Occurs at the inner membrane where the shuttles drop off electrons to protein complexes (electron carriers).

Inner mitochondrial membrane
Oxygen must be present
to accept electrons
at the end of

Electrons from glycolysis and the Krebs cycle are transported to the electron transport chain as NADH and FADH2.
