c
It is located on outer surface of the inner membrane of the mitochondria and it transfers electron from complex I to complex II
d
It is located on outer surface of the inner membrane of the mitochondria and it transfers electron from complex I to complex III
detailed solution
Correct option is A
Electrons from NADH produced in the mitochondrial matrix during citric acid cycle are oxidised by an NADH dehydrogenase (complex I), and electrons are then transferred to ubiquinone located within the inner membrane. It transfers electron from complex I to complex III. It can also transfer electrons from complex II to complex III.Talk to our academic expert!
