Answer: Options related to your question is missing below are the missing options
a. cytochrome c is a one-electron acceptor, whereas QH2 is a two-electron donor.
b. cytochrome c is a two-electron acceptor, whereas QH2 is a one-electron donor.
c. cytochrome c is water soluble and operates between the inner and outer mitochondrial membranes
d. heart muscle has a high rate of oxidative metabolism, and therefore requires twice as much cytochrome c as QH2 for electron transfer to proceed normally.
e. two molecules of cytochrome c must first combine physically before they are catalytically active.
answer:
cytochrome c is a one-electron acceptor, whereas QH2 is a two-electron donor. ( A )
Explanation:
The overall stoichiometry of the reaction requires 2 mol of cytochrome per mole of QH2 because a cytochrome is simply a one-electron acceptor while QH2 is not a one-electron donor ( i.e. it is a two-electron donor )
An electron donor in a reaction is considered a reducing agent because it donates its electrons to another compound thereby self oxidizing itself in the process.
