15. What is the function of the electrons as they move along the electron transport chain?

The direct purpose of moving electrons down the electron transport chain is to pump protons (hydrogen ions) into the intermembrane space. This creates a chemiosmotic gradient that the cell uses to generate ATP by selectively allowing hydrogen ions to move back into the mitochondrial matrix.

Explanation:

an active site is a region that is present on an enzyme where the reactants or the substrate molecules we can say bind and experience a chemical reaction. the substrate is basically a reactant whose concentration is changing and that is converting into a product after binding at the active site of an enzyme
