Why does cyanide inhibit electron transport but not photosynthesis? O In animals cyanide binding to complex IV blocks electron transport and therefore ATP synthesis, in photosynthesis this complex has other hemes that cyanide cannot bind and therefore is not inhibited. O In animals cyanide binding to complex IV blocks electron transport and therefore ATP synthesis, in photosynthesis this complex is not used and therefore is not inhibited. O In animals cyanide binding to complex IV prevents hydrogen gradient formation and therefore ATP synthesis, in photosynthesis this complex is not used and therefore is not inhibited. O In animals cyanide binding to complex IV blocks electron transport and therefore ATP synthesis, in photosynthesis uses multiple complex IVs that cyanide cannot bind and therefore is not inhibited.
