The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Hydrogen joins oxygen at the end of," we need to analyze each of the provided options: glycolysis, electron transport system, Krebs cycle, and all of these. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Glycolysis**: - Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down into pyruvate. - In this process, hydrogen does not directly combine with oxygen. Instead, it is involved in the formation of NADH and ATP. 2. **Understanding the Krebs Cycle**: - The Krebs cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle or TCA cycle, occurs after glycolysis and involves the conversion of acetyl-CoA into carbon dioxide and energy carriers (NADH and FADH2). - Similar to glycolysis, hydrogen does not directly join with oxygen in this cycle; it is released in the form of NADH and FADH2. 3. **Understanding the Electron Transport System (ETS)**: - The electron transport system (or chain) is the final stage of cellular respiration. - In this process, electrons from NADH and FADH2 are transferred through a series of proteins in the inner mitochondrial membrane. - At the end of this chain, hydrogen ions (protons) combine with oxygen to form water (H2O). This is the key reaction where hydrogen joins with oxygen. 4. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the only pathway where hydrogen directly joins with oxygen to form water is the electron transport system. - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is **Electron Transport System**. ### Final Answer: **Electron Transport System**
