Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Molecules that prevent oxidative damage by the superoxide radical possess antioxidant properties.

Answer: H
 Coenzyme Q is a molecule that plays a key role in the electron transport chain of cellular respiration and is also a potent antioxidant, helping to prevent oxidative damage.

Answer: D and E
 Copper and heme are both cofactors in many enzymes involved in redox reactions, which can help prevent oxidative damage. However, they do not possess specific antioxidant properties on their own.
