64. The precise distribution of the multi-protein complexes of the electron transport chain inside the mitochondrion is restricted to the

A. Outer membrane lipid bilayer
B. Inner mitochondrial membrane
C. Soluble matrix compartment
D. Perinuclear matrix space

📝 Explanation

The electron transport chain complexes (I-IV) are embedded within the inner membrane folds (cristae) to easily interact with the chemical environment.
