In the mitochondrial ETS, cytochrome c:
1.    is located on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane and gets oxidised when it passes electrons to Fe-s component of either Complex I or Complex II
2.    is located on the inner surface of the outer mitochondrial membrane and gets reduced when it receives electrons from Fe-s component of either Complex I or Complex II
3.    is located on the inner surface of the outer mitochondrial membrane and gets reduced when it receives electrons from Cua component of Complex IV
4.    is located on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane and gets oxidised when it passes electrons to Cua component of Complex IV
