Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Will a cell go through glycolysis even if there is no final electron acceptor for ETC?
A
Yes
B
No
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, which allows for oxidative phosphorylation. Without oxygen, the electrons will be backed up, eventually causing the electron transport chain to halt.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glycolysis and the citric acid cycle can not occur if there is not NAD+ present to pick up electrons as the reactions proceed.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glycolysis requires oxygen or another inorganic final electron acceptor to proceed. 32. All organisms that use aerobic cellular respiration have cytochrome oxidase.

Detailed explanation-4: -Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell and does not require oxygen. 2. Krebs Cycle (also known as the Citric Acid Cycle): Uses the pyruvate molecules from Glycolysis to generate 2 ATP as well as several molecules of FADH2 and NADH for the electron transport chain.
