fill in the blank question

in the last step of the ets, the electrons are passed to blank along with protons which results in the formation of blank

Explanation:

Identify the final electron acceptor in aerobic ETS

In aerobic respiration, the final step of the electron transport system (ETS) involves passing electrons to oxygen (\(\text{O}_2\)).

Determine the product of the final reduction step

When oxygen accepts these electrons along with protons (\(\text{H}^+\)), it is reduced to form water (\(\text{H}_2\text{O}\)).

Answer:

In the last step of the ETS, the electrons are passed to <blank>oxygen</blank> along with protons which results in the formation of <blank>water</blank>.
