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.
