      Question 5

      Marks: 1

      In 1961 Peter Mitchell proposed a theory which resulted in a paradigm shift in the field of bioenergetics.

      Which theory did he develop?

      • The function of REDOX reactions in the electron transport chain

      • The function of oxygen as the final electron acceptor

      • The function of chemiosmosis in synthesis of ATP

      • The importance of the link reaction in progressing from anaerobic to aerobic respiration
