A series of events occurring in the mitochondria leads to the synthesis of which energy molecule

The inner mitochondrial membrane transduces energy through oxidative phosphorylation or the electron transport chain, which is responsible for the production of energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate molecule.

The electron transport chain is the conversion of oxygen to water. It comprises an enzymatic series of electron donor and acceptors where each electron donor passes an electron to an acceptor and in turn, donates these electrons to another acceptor, a process that continues down the series. After this, cellular respiration occurs, a biochemical pathway by which the cells releases energy for the essential processes of life.
