Electron transport chain :-
2NADH = 5ATP
2NADH= 5ATP
6NADH= 15ATP
2 FADH2 = 3ATP
( 1 NADH = 2.5 ATPS OR 10H+ IONS AND 1FADH2= 1.5 ATP OR 6H+ IONS)
This stage produces most of the energy 34 atp molecules compared to only 2 Atp for glycolysis and 2 atp for krebs cycle and the electrom transport chain takes place in the mitochondria. The ETC pulls H+ ions through the chain from the electron transport chain the released hydrogen ions make ADP for an end result of 32 Atp.
