Oxygen can be readily enters cells. They participate in a process called cellular respiration. It serves as the terminal electron acceptor in the electron transport system where the energy or ATP is produced.

∙ 9y agoOxygen is a terminal oxidant for normal respiration. In its absence anaerobic respiration or fermentation takes place. In the presence of oxygen reduced co-enzymes transfer their energy to electron which pass over a chain of carriers. the electrons loose energy in steps and help in the synthesis of ATP.

What is the major difference between anaerobic respiration and aerobic respiration?
anaerobic respiration it does not require oxygen to survive,but only CO2 requiring whereas aerobic does require oxygen
What is respiration using oxygen called?
Aerobic respiration is the respiration that requires oxygen. It needs oxygen in order to generate ATP. Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen.
Respiration with and without oxygen is called?
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen; anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.
What role does glucose play in cellular respiration?
it delivers oxygen
Two major stages of aerobic respiration?
The two major stages of aerobic respiration are the krebs cycle and electron transport.
What role does oxygen play during respiration?
it gives you energy from oxygen.
Where is the primary role of oxygen in cellular respiration chain located?
The primary role of oxygen in aerobic respiration is to be the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain. This occurs at the mitochondrial inner membrane.
What is the major difference between anaerobic respiration and aerobic respiration?
anaerobic respiration it does not require oxygen to survive,but only CO2 requiring whereas aerobic does require oxygen
What role does the oxygen in cellular respiration play?
Oxygen is used for oxidation of organic compounds to release energy
How did Antoine Lavoisier discover the role of oxygen in animal respiration?
What a stupid question.
What are the two major processes that involve carbon and oxygen?
Photosynthesis and respiration

What is respiration using oxygen called?
Aerobic respiration is the respiration that requires oxygen. It needs oxygen in order to generate ATP. Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen.
This is the electron carrier in cellular respiration?
In most cases iron shift between ferrous and ferric states to carry and transport electrons in cellular respiration. The cytochrome b and c complexes also play a major role. In aerobic organisms, oxygen is the final electron acceptor in cellular respiration.
What did the women ribs play the major role in respiration?
