Celeste and Raymond are studying the differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. They learned that in eukaryotic cells The electron transport chain is in a different location then in prokaryotic cells. Which statement give the correct explanation of this difference?

See the answer below

Explanation:

Eukaryotic organisms or eukaryotes have nuclei and membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondrion and chloroplasts, unlike prokaryotic cells/prokaryotes.

In eukaryotic organisms, the process of electron transport - a part of the respiratory process - happens in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion through a series of electron carriers.

Because prokaryotes lack mitochondrion, the electron transport chain takes place in the cell membrane as an improvisation.

Hence, the difference in the location of the electron transport chains of eukaryotes and prokaryotes is due to the mitochondrion.

cellular respiration oxidizes food into energy in the form of atps.

glycolysis (6 c hexose) > 2x atps are used > 6c hexose biphosphate > 2 x 3c triphosphate >

2 x 3c pyruvate (2x nadh produced from nad) and (4x atp produced)

pyruvate actively pumped mitochondrial matrix.
