Cytochromes are present on the cristate, i.e. inner foldings of mitochondria. Cytochromes are iron (heme) containing proteins primarily responsible for transfer of electrons in ETC from ubiquinone to complex-V for generation of ATP(energy molecules) and terminal acceptor O2 in electron transport chain.
They are also called respiratory pigments, which are capable of performing both the oxidation and reduction reactions.
The energy -releasing process in which the substrate is oxidised without an external electron acceptor called

A competitive inhibitor of succinic dehydrogenase is

The chemiosmotic coupling hypothesis of oxidative phosphorylation proposes that Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is formed because
High energy bonds are formed in mitochondrial proteins
ADP is pumped out of the matrix into the intermembrane space
a proton gradient forms across the inner membrane
a proton gradient forms across the inner membrane
The overall goal of glycolysis, Krebs cycle and the electron transport system is the formation of
ATP in small stepwise units
ATP in one large oxidation reaction
