What is oxidative phosphorylation?

• A process where ATP is converted back to ADP

• A process where ADP and Pi are used to synthesize ATP using energy from oxidation (also known as the electron transport chain)

• A process that stores energy in the form of glucose

• A process by which sugar is broken down into carbon dioxide and water
