Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The electron transport chain is a series of four protein complexes that couple redox reactions, creating an electrochemical gradient that leads to the creation of ATP in a complete system named oxidative phosphorylation . It occurs in mitochondria in both cellular respiration and photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-2: –The electron transport system takes place in the cristae present in the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Cristae are the infoldings of the inner membrane of the mitochondria and it aids in the cellular respiration.
