Can u help me to explain to me part c, please? I stuggled. Answer should be H2O, NAD, FAD, and ATP for part C? can u help me to explain to me

15.15) The reduced coenzymes generated by the citric acid cycle (and beta-oxidation) donate electrons in oxidative phosphorylation.
Answer each of the questions below by selecting the appropriate species from the list of species choices.
NOTE: You will need to select more than one species for some of these questions.
a) Which species donate electrons to the proteins of the electron transport chain?
NADH and FADH₂
b) Which species is the final acceptor of electrons in oxidative phosphorylation?
0₂
c) Which species are the final products of oxidative phosphorylation?
H₂O, NAD+, FAD, and ATP
list of species choices:
H₂O
NADH
NAD+
ATP
ADP
0₂
FADH2
FAD
Coenzyme A
EXPLANATION: The primary goal of food catabolism is the production of ATP. Before oxidative phosphorylation, most of the
chemical potential energy extracted from food is still in the form of reduced coenzymes (NADH and FADH₂). Oxidative
phosphorylation is the process in which electrons from NADH or FADH₂ are transferred, through a series of electron transfer
intermediates (first to the proteins of the electron transport chain) to dissolved oxygen (O₂) in order to provide the energy required
to produce ATP. In this process, ADP and an inorganic phosphate (P;) are converted to ATP. The formation of ATP from ADP
and P; would not occur spontaneously without the input of energy that is provided when electrons are transferred to O₂.
