The correct answer is:
C) Membrane potential
The electron transport chain is a series of protein complexes and other molecules that transfer electrons through a membrane within mitochondria (in eukaryotes) or across the plasma membrane (in prokaryotes), resulting in the pumping of protons (H+ ions) across the membrane. This process creates a membrane potential, often referred to as the proton motive force, which is used to drive ATP synthesis.
