    The document summarizes the electron transport chain (ETC), also called the respiratory chain, which is the final stage of cellular respiration. The ETC uses energy from carbohydrates, fats, and amino acids to generate ATP through a series of redox reactions. Reduced coenzymes like NADH and FADH2 donate electrons that are passed through protein complexes in the mitochondrial inner membrane and ultimately reduce oxygen to water. This electron flow pumps protons across the membrane, creating an electrochemical gradient used for ATP synthesis via ATP synthase. Thus, the mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell that generate ATP through oxidative phosphorylation using the electron transport chain.
