Assertion(A): Electron transport chains are redox reactions that transfer electrons from an electron donor to an electron acceptor.
Reason(R): The transfer of electrons is coupled to the translocation of protons across a membrane, producing a proton gradient.

1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
