Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The electrons pass through different electron carrier complexes of ETS. Now H+ ions are released in the inner mitochondrial space. Now the H+ ions gradient is created across the inner membrane. ATP synthetase enzyme becomes active and ATP is synthesized.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitochondrial respiration is the set of metabolic reactions and processes requiring oxygen that takes place in mitochondria to convert the energy stored in macronutrients to adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the universal energy donor in the cell.
