Which is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain of cellular respiration?

Answer
A
NADH
B
FADH2
C
oxygen
D
carbon dioxide

Explanation

At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts electrons and combines with hydrogen ions to form water. NADH and FADH2 deliver electrons to the chain, while carbon dioxide is produced during other stages of cellular respiration. Therefore, oxygen is the final electron acceptor.
