Cyanide poisoning is a type of poisoning caused by exposure to certain cyanide-containing compounds, such as hydrogen cyanide or cyanide salts. Inhalation or consumption of these compounds can cause histotoxic hypoxia, a condition in which cells are no longer able to take up or utilize oxygen during cellular respiration. As a result, ATP production during respiration is significantly reduced. Based on the information above, which of the following is the most likely explanation for how cyanide causes histotoxic hypoxia?
a. Cyanide inhibits the transport of pyruvate across the mitochondrial membrane.
b. Cyanide inhibits the enzymatic breakdown of glucose during glycolysis.
c. Cyanide inhibits the transfer of electrons to the final acceptor in the electron transport chain.
d. Cyanide inhibits the reduction of NAD+start superscript, plus, end superscript and FAD during the Krebs cycle.
