  1. Copper is associated with ____ mitochondrial enzymes.
    1. Cytochrome oxidase
    2. Succinic dehydrogenase
    3. Catalase
    4. Acid phosphatase
Correct Option: A

Copper is involved in normalized function of many enzymes, such as cytochrome c oxidase, which is complex IV in mitochondrial electron transport chain, ceruloplasmin, Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase, and in amine oxidases. These enzymes catalyze reactions for oxidative phosphorylation, iron transportation, antioxidant and free radical scavenging and neutralization, and neurotransmitter synthesis, respectively.
