Solution

The correct option is C Inner mitochondrial membrane
The ETS is a series of electron carriers embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane that shuttles electrons from NADH and FADH2 to molecular O2. In this process, protons are pumped from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space.
