Mouse mitochondria were isolated and incubated with two different compounds to see whether they affected FADH2 oxidation, NADH oxidation, or ATP formation.A control sample was run in the absence of either compound.The results are summarized in the table as "yes" if a process was observed and "no" if a process was not observed.
Which statement is consistent with these data?
A) Compound Z inhibits a component of the electron transport chain, while compound A inhibits ATP synthase.
B) Compound A inhibits a component of the electron transport chain, while compound Z inhibits ATP synthase.
C) Compound Z inhibits the first component of the electron transport chain, while compound A inhibits a later component of the chain.
D) Compound A inhibits the first component of the electron transport chain, while compound Z inhibits a later component of the chain.
E) Compound A and compound Z both directly interfere with the final transfer of electrons to oxygen.
