In oxidative phosphorylation, how many electrons can one molecule of FADH2 donate to the electron transport chain?
A
4 electrons
B
1 electron
C
0 electrons (FADH2 donates only protons)
D
2 electrons
검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand that FADH2 is a reduced coenzyme that participates in the electron transport chain by donating electrons.
Recall that each molecule of FADH2 carries a pair of electrons, which it donates to Complex II (succinate dehydrogenase) in the electron transport chain.
Recognize that electrons are transferred in pairs in biological redox reactions, so FADH2 donates 2 electrons, not 1 or 4.
Note that FADH2 does not donate protons directly; instead, it donates electrons which then contribute to the proton gradient indirectly.
Conclude that the number of electrons donated by one molecule of FADH2 to the electron transport chain is 2.
