What is true about the function of the electron transport system (ETS)?

The correct answer is the last option.

The first option does not make sense as the electron transport chain makes the most ATP from the whole ATP synthesis cycle including glycolysis and the Kreb's Cycle. It also does not make NADH, but instead splits NADH into NAD- and H+. The H+ are used later to make ATP.

The second option also does not make sense as a "lysosome" is a digestive "pocket" in the cell, used for taking in and digesting food for the cell.

The third option also does not make sense as it does not produce NADH and is not during glycolysis. The electron transfer chain breaks up NADH and FADH2 and is the last step in the ATP synthesis process, after glycolysis and Kreb's Cycle.

The last option is correct. The electron transfer chain has the ability to make 34 molecules of ATP (in theory; so in real-life this does not always happen). The electron transfer chain does break down several compounds derived from glucose in a series of chemical reactions that do occur in the cristae of the mitochondrion.

Uniform dispersion pattern is a type of dispersion pattern in which resources are present in abundant quantity as well as evenly distributed with little interaction within individuals. Due to abundant quantity of resources , the population of organisms increases that leads to more population of individuals in the ecosystem. Due to abundant amount of resources, there is less competition as well as interaction between individuals that are present at that time.
