Best Answer

Coenzyme Q is found in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion and plays a key role in oxidative phosphorylation during cellular respiration. NADH releases electrons which are transferred to coenzyme Q via NADH dehydrogenase. Coenzyme Q then carries the electrons to the cytochrome bc1 complex. Electrons are also transferred to coenzyme Q by FADH2. The electrons are then brought to the cytochrome bc1 complex like before. This process of transferring electrons is known as the electron transport chain and is ultimately a part of oxidative phosphorylation which is the formation of ATP from ADP and an inorganic phosphate.
