Question

In the electron transport chain, electrons are passed from redox center to redox center             .                       

                            a.              with the assistance of a carrier protein                             b.              in an ATP dependent fashion                             c.              spontaneously due to the redox potential gradient                             d.              as a result of the addition of free energy                             e.              as a result of the proton gradient

Explanation / Answer

spontaneously due to the redox potential gradient
