The protons that are generated during the electron transport chain are generated by:
Hydrolysis reactions
Dehydration reactions
Oxidation reactions
Reduction reactions
Option 3rd that is oxidation reactions is the correct answer. During electron transport chain, electrons are carried by NAD+ and FAD in the form of NADH and FADH2. NADH and FADH2 submit their electron to the electron at the beginning of the transport chain and converts into NAD+, H+ and 2 free electrons. Free electrons and H+ finally received by oxygen leading to formation of water molecule. Thus, H+ is formed by oxidation of NADH and FADH2 (hydrogen ion and electrons are removed from NADH and FADH2).
Note: Removal of electrons or hydrogen is known as oxidation.

During photosynthesis, the transfer of electrons from water to the electron transport chain of chloroplasts yields oxygen. Apprently, some molecule of the transport chain must receive those electrons in a(n) _____ reaction. a) oxidation b) hydrolysis c) condensarion d) reduction
The electron transport chain consists of protein complexes embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane, where it generat a proton gradient by a series of oxidation-reduction, or redox, reactions. Although all of the stages of cellular respiration (glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain) are necessary for life, the electron transport chain is sometimes called the most important stage. First complete the sentence, then answer the question. The electron transport chain uses the transfer of protons between protein...
7) Why do hydrolysis reactions occur more readily in solution than dehydration reactions? A) Hydrolysis reactions increase G, or Gibbs free energy of the system, B) Hydrolysis reactions are endergonic and increase entropy of the system. C) Hydrolysis reactions are exergonic and decrease entropy of the system. D) Hydrolysis reactions are exergonic and increase entropy of the system. 8) How do cells use the ATP cycle illustrated in the figure? AAA W A) Cells use the cycle to recycle ADP...
The electron transport chain (ETC), or respiratory chain, is linked to proton movement and ATP synthesis. Select the statements that accurately describe the electron transport chain Choose all that apply. Electron transfer in the ETC is coupled to proton transfer from the matrix to the intermembrane space The outer membrane of mitochondria is readily permeable to small molecules and hydrogen ions. Prosthetic groups, such as iron-sulfur centers, are directly involved with electron transfer. Electron carriers in the ETC include ubiquinone...

Cellular respiration: The Electron Transport Chain The breakdown of glucose ends during the Krebs cydle; however, it is important to note that the energy previously contained in glucose is mostly stored in NADH and FADHz. In the last step of celular respiration, the high-energy electrons within NADH and FADH2 are passed within a set of proteins found in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion, collectively known as the electron transport chain. The electrons provide the energy to create ATP, which...

Can someone help clarify the ration of electrons to protons throughout the Electron Transport Chain and what is meant by four-four-two? I am confused whether it’s 1 e- for every two protons or a 1 to 1 ratio. Thank you
