Step-by-step solution
Glucose has been broken down to release CO2 and eight molecules of NADH + H+; two of FADH2 have been synthesised besides just two molecules of ATP in TCA cycle. The metabolic pathway through which the electron passes from one carrier to another is called electron transport system and it is present in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Cytochrome c is a small protein attached to the outer surface of the inner membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons between complex III and IV. Complex IV refers
