In transverse waves, the particle movement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Light and other types of electromagnetic radiation are examples of transverse waves. Some other examples of transverse waves include a ripple on a pond and a wave in a string.
An electron transport chain (ETC) is a series of complexes that transfer electrons from electrondonors to electron acceptors via redox (both reduction and oxidation occurring simultaneously) reactions, and couples this electron transfer with the transfer of protons (H+ ions) across a membrane.
Solvent is defined as the ability to dissolve other substances. Therefore, you're witnessing water's solvent property.
