The final electron acceptor at the end of the electron transport chain is:

A. oxygen

Oxygen is the primary molecule that accepts electrons at the end of the electron transport chain during aerobic respiration, forming water as a byproduct. The other options (carbon dioxide, glucose, and NADH) are not final electron acceptors in this process.
