multiple choice question
the final step of the ets in aerobic respiration occurs when electrons are passed to ______.
\\(o\\) \\(\text{nad}^+\\)
\\(o\\) \\(\text{co}_2\\)
\\(o\\) \\(\text{fad}\\)
\\(o\\) \\(\text{o}_2\\)
Identify the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration
$$
\text{NADH} / \text{FADH}_2
ightarrow \text{ETS Complexes}
ightarrow \text{O}_2
$$
Determine the reduction reaction
$$
\text{O}_2 + 4\text{H}^+ + 4e^-
ightarrow 2\text{H}_2\text{O}
$$
Match with the given options
$$
\text{Final Acceptor} = \text{O}_2
$$
