Answer :

10

For every one NADH molecule oxidized at complex i ,  10 total hydrogen ions are pumped across all of the complexes from the mitochondrial matrix to the inner membrane space.

How many complexes are involved in mitochondrial electron transport?

4 proteins

  • The oxidative phosphorylation process, also known as the electron transport chain, is a collection of four protein complexes that combine redox events to produce an electrochemical gradient that results in the production of ATP.
  • Both photosynthesis and cellular respiration take place in mitochondria.

What distinguishes Complex 1 from Complex 2 in particular?

  • Complex I pulls four protons from the matrix into the intermembrane gap and absorbs high energy electrons from NADH.
  • Succinate dehydrogenase is in Complex II.
  • In the Krebs cycle, Complex II transforms succinate to fumarate and produces FADH2.
  • Directly obtaining FADH2, Complex II provides two electrons to electron transport system..
