Which cytochrome acts as a mobile electron carrier, transferring electrons between complex III and IV during ETS?
Options
- ACytochrome a
- BCytochrome bc_1
- CCytochrome c
- DCytochrome a_3
Correct answer
C. Cytochrome c
Step-by-step solution
Cytochrome c is a small protein attached to the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane.
It acts as a mobile carrier for the transfer of electrons between complex III (cytochrome b complex) and complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase complex).
Therefore, cytochrome c is the correct mobile electron carrier.
Answer: Cytochrome c
It acts as a mobile carrier for the transfer of electrons between complex III (cytochrome b complex) and complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase complex).
Therefore, cytochrome c is the correct mobile electron carrier.
Answer: Cytochrome c
