We can justify using the disappearance of oxygen from the solution as a measure of electron transport due to the fact that oxygen is consumed during the process and is essential.
The electron transport chain is a complicated series of processes that take place within the mitochondria of a cell. This chain assists in the production of ATP which drives most of the functions of cells. The electron transport chain consists of various redox reactions between electron donors and receivers.
The role of oxygen in the electron transport chain is to act as the final receiver of electrons. Therefore, not only is oxygen consumed during this process, but it is also among the last steps, which allows us not only to measure that the electron transport chain had commenced, but also that it has proceeded correctly. We can do this based on the rate of disappearance of oxygen.
