1. The transfer of from one molecule to another is an oxidation-reduction reaction, or redox reaction. 2. In cellular respiration, glucose becomes to carbon dioxide (CO2) as it loses electrons (in hydrogen atoms). 3. In cellular respiration, oxygen becomes to water (H2O) as it gains electrons (in hydrogen atoms) that came from glucose. 4. In cellular respiration, organic molecules become oxidized as picks up electrons and H+ and becomes reduced to NADH. 5. NADH delivers electrons to an electron transport chain, which passes the electrons through carrier molecules in a series of redox reactions to the final electron acceptor, . 6. The energy released from the redox reactions in the electron transport chain is used by the cell to make .
