A. Cytochrome

B. Ubiquinone

C. Cytochrome oxidase

D. All of the above

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Ubiquinone is a component of ETC and is not a protein.
Ubiquinone is a mobile component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, where it acts as a pro-oxidant in its ubisemiquinone state.
Ubiquinone (Q) accepts the electrons from both complex I and complex II and delivers them to complex III. Complex III pumps protons through the membrane and passes its electrons to cytochrome c for transport to the fourth complex of proteins and enzymes.
