Lesson: Oxidative Phosphorylation Biology

Start Practising

In this lesson, we will learn how to describe the process of oxidative phosphorylation and recall the products formed.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

describe the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain and the active transport of hydrogen ions from the matrix to the intermembrane space,
state the products of oxidative phosphorylation as being water and ATP,
outline the role of , , and the electron carriers in the electron transport chain,
define oxygen as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain,
describe the chemiosmotic theory of ATP production in terms of the movement of hydrogen ions through ATP synthase.
