Solution

The correct option is A Fe++Cu+>Fe++

NADH dehydrogenase has two prosthetic groups - flavin mononuclear ( FMN ) and iron-sulfur ( Fe-S ) complexes. Electrons and protons pass from NADH to FMN. Electrons now move to Fe-S complex and from there to quinone, also called as ubiquinone. This charged ubiquinone picks up a proton and with the help of cyt b passes it to the outer chamber.
2e + 2Fe3+ + S 2Fe 2+S
2Fe2+S + Q 2Fe3+S + Q2
This occurs in complex 1 of electron transport system.
