As the high-energy electrons are transported along the chains, some of their energy is captured. This energy is used to pump hydrogen ions (from NADH and FADH2) across the inner membrane, from the matrix into the intermembrane space. Electron transport in a mitochondrion is shown in Figure below.
During the S-Phase, the cell replicates its DNA. Interphase is then followed by Mitosis. Mitosis is when the cell separates its two sets of DNA and divides it into two more cells.
