Which of the following statements about the inner mitochondrial membrane is false?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The inner mitochondrial membrane does not play a role in the production of pyruvate. Pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm during glycolysis, which takes place outside of the mitochondria. The inner mitochondrial membrane is involved in the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation, which produce ATP from the products of glycolysis (pyruvate and NADH). ATP synthase, electron carriers, and a H+ gradient are all important components of the inner mitochondrial membrane in ATP production.
