Oxidative phosphorylation is a metabolic pathway that uses energy released by the oxidation of nutrients to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Although many forms of life on earth using various types of nutrients, almost all carry out oxidative phosphorylation to produce ATP. This track is very commonly used because it is a very efficient way to release some energy, as compared to other alternatives such as fermentation anaerobic glycolysis.
