Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain in aerobic respiration The electron transport chain of the mitochondria is the means by which electrons are removed from reduced carrier NADH and transferred to oxygen to yield water. In the cytochrome oxidase complex of the electron transport chain, four electrons interact with a molecule of oxygen and eight hydrogen ions. The four electrons, four of the hydrogen ions and the molecule oxygen are used to form water molecules. In anaerobic respiration the final electron acceptor can be of many types such as Ferric iron which is used by denitrifying bacteria

Describe the relationship between DNA and RNA in the process of protein synthesis?
bija089 [108]
FULL ANSWER

DNA is found within chromosomes. When a cell divides, or replicates, the DNA is copied. RNA comes into the picture when it is time to copy the DNA and send it to the cytoplasm of a cell, where protein synthesis takes place. DNA can't copy itself without RNA present and several types of RNA are used to copy and transmit genetic information. A good example of how DNA and RNA work together is a newborn baby's development. Without the relationship between RNA and DNA, a single sperm and egg couldn't produce a baby which has five trillion cells, each of which carries the same DNA.
