Solution

The correct option is B Mitochondria
  • Enzymes connected with oxidative electron transport system are found in the mitochondria.
  • The mitochondria is a double-membraned cell organelle, known as the powerhouse of the cell which is present in all eukaryotic cells.
  • The inner mitochondrial membrane has folds called cristae which helps in increasing the surface area.
  • The inner mitochondrial membrane is embedded with the enzyme ATP synthase (ATP synthesis), succinate dehydrogenase (oxidation-reduction reaction) and is also the site of the electron transport chain (aerobic respiration).
  • So, the correct answer is 'Mitochondria'.
