- The electron-transport chain consists of a number of multi protein complexes, which work in conjunction to pass electrons from an electron carrier, such as NADH, to O2.

Why is this beneficial for ATP synthesis, and what is one way that the existence of super complexes has been demonstrated experimentally?
