In the mitochondrial Electron Transport System, Cytochrome c:
1. is a small protein attached to the inner surface of the outer membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons between complex III and IV.
2. is a small protein attached to the outer surface of the inner membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons between complex III and IV.
3. is a lipid present within the inner membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons between complex I and II.
4. is a lipid present within the inner membrane and acts as a mobile carrier for transfer of electrons between complex II and III.
