Question

15. (EOC Q11) Which of the following is properly described? respiration: converts reactive oxygen species into hydrogen redox potential: measure of the tendency to accept or donate protons cytochrome c: lipid-soluble electron carrier superoxide dismutase: converts hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water Q cycle: funnels electrons from a two-electron carrier to a single-electron carrier 15. (EOC Q11) Which of the following is properly described? respiration: converts reactive oxygen species into hydrogen redox potential: measure of the tendency to accept or donate protons cytochrome c: lipid-soluble electron carrier superoxide dismutase: converts hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water Q cycle: funnels electrons from a two-electron carrier to a single-electron carrier

Explanation / Answer

Explanation:

The redox potential measures the capacity of a molecule to either release or accept electrons from chemical reactions. A two step reaction that funnels electrons from a two electron carrier to an one-electron carrier and pumps protons. Catalase converts the hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water.
