As we learnt in

Oxidalive phosphorylation -

Synthesis of energy such ATP molecules with the help of energy librated during oxidation of reduced coenzymes (NADH, FADH2) produced in respiration, his is carried out in ETS and energy is generated through chemoiosmosis.

- wherein

Occours in the inner mitochondria membrane.

Oxidative phosphorylation is the process in which ATP is formed as a result of the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH2 to O2 by a series of electron carriers. This process, which takes place in inner mitochondrial membrane, is the major source of ATP in aerobic organisms.
