Question

18. What's developed as a result of the electron transport chain? A. Membrane potential B. Proton gradient C. Phospholipid bilayer D. New cells

Answer 1

B is the answer.

As reduction and oxidation (electron transfer), occurs simultaneously, protons (H+) are also transported across a membrane. The result is an electromagnetic proton gradient which in turn drives the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the molecule used for energy.

Answer 2

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The electron chain is a series of electron complexes that transfer electrons from electron-donating energy carriers that help produce ATP and develop a proton gradient.
