Question

question 3 (1 point)
cyanide poisoning occurs because cyanide binds cytochrome oxidase, preventing it from transferring electrons to the final electron acceptor of the mitochondria electron transport chain. what is that acceptor molecule?
atp
water
oxygen
none of the above
question 4 (1 point)
the electron transport chain,occurs
muscle
chloroplast
cytoplasm
inner membrane of the mitochondria
question 5 (1 point)
how many phosphate molecules are found in atp
1
2
4
3

Explanation:

• Question 3: In the mitochondria electron - transport chain, oxygen is the final electron acceptor. Cyanide disrupts this process by binding to cytochrome oxidase.
• Question 4: The electron - transport chain occurs on the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
• Question 5: ATP (adenosine tri - phosphate) has three phosphate molecules.

Answer:

• Question 3: C. Oxygen
• Question 4: D. Inner membrane of the mitochondria
• Question 5: D. 3
