Question

Some help would be great with this, I didnt really understand it when the professor went over it.

Four electron carriers, a, b, c, and d, whose reduced and oxidized forms can be distinguished
spectrophotometrically, are required for respiration in a bacterial electron transport system. In the
presence of substrates and oxygen, three different inhibitors block respiration, yielding patterns of
oxidation states shown below (O = oxidized, R = reduced). What is the order of the carriers in the
chain from substrates to O₂, and where do the three inhibitors act? Show your work!
