Hmmm...
Subtle difference I think....
Explanation:
I have been pondering on this for a while, and it depends on how you look at it I guess:
In my view ETC's are a Mechanism , Oxidative Phosphorylation is a Process, just like Photosynthesis, which uses a slightly different ETC. (different species, so different complexes).
But I agree, both yield
in OP
But I'll gladly give up this opinion for a better one...
