Terminal oxidation or respiration is the final step in aerobic respiration which involves the passage of electrons and protons to the final acceptor oxygen. Terminal oxidation involves two processes they are electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation. Glycolysis produces only 2 ATP molecules, but somewhere between 30 and 36 ATPs are produced by the oxidative phosphorylation of the 10 NADH and 2 succinate molecules made by converting one molecule of glucose to carbon dioxide and water, while each cycle of beta oxidation of a fatty acid yields about 14 ATPs.
