Carbon monoxide is considered toxic because it acts on Complex IV. How would the addition of carbon monoxide to activelyrespiring mitochondria affect the relative oxidation-reduction states of all components of the electron-transport chain?Complexes I and I would be reduced, but complexes II and IV would be oxidized because the electrons come from FADH2 oxidation, notNADH.O All four complexes would remain oxidized because they function as a multisystem complex.O Complexes I, II, and I would be reduced and Complex IV would be oxidized.All four complexes would remain reduced because they function as a multisystem complexComplexes I, II, and ill would be oxidized but Complex IV would remain reduced.

The answer is the 3rd option: Complex I, II, and III would be reduced and complex IV would be…

What distinguishes the four complexes of the mitochondrial electron transfer system?
Which of the following statements concerning the complete oxidation of FADH2 in the electron transport chain is NOT true? a. In the final step, electrons from cytochrome c to O2 reducing it to H2O in complex IV, and four protons are transported from the intermembrane space to the matrix. b. In the first step, electrons from FADH2 are transferred in complex II to ubiquinone, which does not transport any proton across the inner mitochondrion membrane. c. In the second step, complex III transfers the electrons from ubiquinone to cytochrome c, and four protons are transported from the matrix to the intermembrane space. d. The complete oxidation of FADH2 causes transfer of 6 protons and yields two ATP.
For the Complex III in the electron transport chain: Complex III step 1: UQH2 is oxidized in a 2 electron process. Cytochrome c is reduced and UQ is reduced to UQH in two 1 electron processes. Complex III step 2: UQH2 is oxidized in a 2 electron process. Cytochrome c is reduced and UQH is reduced to UQH2 in two 1 electron processes. The necessary standard reduction potentials are: UQ + 2H+ + 2e- UQH2 E° = 0.06 V cyt c (Fe3+) + e- cyt c (Fe2+) E° = 0.254 V UQ + H+ + e- UQH. E° = 0.03 V UQH. + H+ + e- UQH2 E° = 0.19 V Calculate the total redox potential of the complex. Now calculate how many moles of protons can be translocated across the inner mitochondrial membrane if translocation of 1 mole requires 23 kJ. Calculate the free energy available for proton translocation assuming a 2electron process for each complex.

Which of the following statements is NOT true about the electron transport chain (ETC) and oxidative phosphorylation? A. Oxidative phosphorylation requires the enzyme complexes to be soluble in the mitochondrial matrix. B. If the proton gradient is too high, electrons will not move through the ETC. C. The movement of electrons down the ETC only happens if protons are pumped out of the mitochondrial matrix. D. Oxidative phosphorylation requires the mitochondrial intermembrane space to be more positively charged than the matrix. E.
