17
Q

cytochrome c role

A

accepts e- from complex III and donates to complex IV
no contribution to H pumping
just connects complexes

18
Q

is cytochrome c polar or non polar + where is it

A

POLAR
hydrophilic and soluble in intermembrane space
moves along inner membrane

19
Q

what does complex IV do

A

accepts e- from cytochrome c and donates to Oxygen and make water
use e- to pump H+ into intermembrane space

20
Q

A

Complex I
Complex II
Complex III
Complex IV

21
Q

What is soluble in the intermembrane space

A

cytochrome c

22
