The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Oxidative Phosphorylation**: - Oxidative phosphorylation is the process by which ATP is produced in the mitochondria. It involves the transfer of electrons through a series of protein complexes in the inner mitochondrial membrane. 2. **Identifying the Complexes**: - The electron transport chain consists of several complexes: Complex I (NADH dehydrogenase), Complex II (succinate dehydrogenase), Complex III (cytochrome bc1 complex), Complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase), and Complex V (ATP synthase). 3. **Role of Each Complex**: - Complex I and II are involved in the oxidation of NADH and FADH2, respectively. - Complex III transfers electrons to cytochrome c. - Complex IV transfers electrons to oxygen, the final electron acceptor. - Complex V is responsible for synthesizing ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. 4. **Identifying the Correct Complex for Oxidative Phosphorylation**: - The question asks specifically for the complex involved in oxidative phosphorylation. While Complexes I, II, III, and IV are involved in the electron transport chain, it is Complex V that is responsible for ATP synthesis, which is the end goal of oxidative phosphorylation. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is Complex V, also known as ATP synthase. **Final Answer**: Complex V (ATP synthase) is the complex concerned with oxidative phosphorylation in the inner mitochondrial membrane. ---
