Which outcome disables proton transport in disrupted cytochrome oxidase?

A)Hydroxide diffusion enables charge balance
B)Blocked proton pathway prevents pumping
C)Electron backflow restores redox potential
D)Water ligand shift induces catalysis

💡 Explanation

Blocked proton transport disrupts oxidase turnover, because *proton channeling* is interrupted by the damaged protein, therefore preventing proton pumping across the mitochondrial membrane, rather than the listed alternatives affecting electron flow.
