Oxidative phosphorylation is:

  1. A
    formation of ATP energy released from electrons removed during substrate oxidation
  2. B
    formation of ATP by transfer of phosphate group from a substrate to ADP
  3. C
    oxidation of phosphate group in ATP
  4. D
    addition of phosphate group to ATP

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Shutterstock Explore Oxidative phosphorylation is the process where ATP is formed as a result of the transfer of electrons from NADH or to by a series of electron carriers in the inner mitochondrial membrane. This uses the energy released from the oxidation of substrates.
