- Couter surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons betwe
- Dinner surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons betwe
Correct answer
C. outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons betwe
Step-by-step solution
The ETS contains various cytochromes. Cytochrome bc1 complex (complex III) and cytochrome aa 3 complex (complex IV) are attached to 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.
