Answer» Correct Answer - d Site-specific inhibitors of electrons transport prevent the passage of electrons by binding to a component of the chain, blocking the oxidation/reduction reaction. Antimycin A, an antibiotic, blocks electron transpart at the level of the `CoQH_(2)`-cytochrome c-reductase (Complex III). Cyanide azide and CO bind with cytochrome oxidase complex and inhibit the terminal of electrons to oxygen. |
