Electron transport chain: Inhibitors such as rotenone

Electron transport chain inhibitors such as rotenone, antimycin, and cyanide block specific steps in the electron transport system, which ultimately leads to a decrease in ATP production through cellular respiration. This results in the inability of the cell to meet its energy demands, leading to cellular dysfunction and potential cell death. Each carrier in Electron Transport Chain is first a. Broken-down, Regenerate b. Generated, Broken-down d. Lactic acid and CO2 and then C. Oxidized, Reduced - 56032180 It contains the electron transport chain (ETC) complexes. Electron Transport Chain (ETC): The ETC is depicted as a series of protein complexes embedded in the IMM. These complexes (e.g., Complexes I, II, III, and IV) facilitate the transfer of electrons from electron donors (e.g., NADH, FADH2) to electron acceptors. These 'excited' electrons pass along the electron transport chain in a series of redox reactions with the electron carrier molecules in the membrane, losing energy.
