Reason: The terminal cytochrome reacts with oxygen.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The cytochromes are a group of iron containing electron-trasnferring proteins of aerobic cells that acts sequentially to transfer electrons from flavoprotein to molecular oxygen. The terminal cytochrome of the electron transport chain, which can react with oxygen, is calle ytochrome oxidase.
