Chapter 18, Problem 18P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for coenzyme Q is an effective mobile electron carrier in the electrontransport chain.

Concept introduction:

An electron transport chain (ETC) is the series of redox reactions that involve the transfer of electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors. This transfer of electrons is coupled with the proton transfer (H+) across the membrane. This then creates the electrochemical gradient resulting in the formation of ATP.
