Oxidative phosphorylation is a metabolic process occurring in the mitochondria, where ATP is produced as electrons are transferred through a series of protein complexes in the electron transport chain, driven by the flow of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This process is crucial for energy production in aerobic organisms and is closely tied to the formation of reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress.
congrats on reading the definition of Oxidative phosphorylation. now let's actually learn it.
