Coenzyme q (coq) is sold as a nutritional supplement. one company uses this marketing slogan for coq: "give your heart the fuel it craves most." considering the role of coenzyme q, explain how you think this product might function as a nutritional supplement to benefit the heart. is coq used as a "fuel" during cellular respiration?

CoQ10 would helps raises the concentration of CoQ10 amount which the body needs. CoQ10 can be an aid in the development of the heart's energy amount. So, we can say, CoQ10 can serve as a "fuel" since CoQ approximate to a vitamin in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells where it is involved in ATP production

Complete question

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ) is sold as a nutritional supplement. Some companies use marketing slogans for CoQ such as "Give your heart the fuel it craves most." This fat-soluble substance, which resembles a vitamin, is present in most Eukaryotic cells, primarily in the mitochondria. It is a component of the electron transport chain and participates in aerobic cellular respiration, which generates energy in the form of ATP. Ninety-five percent of the human body's energy is generated this way. Therefore, those organs with the highest energy requirements—such as the heart, liver, and kidney—have the highest CoQ10 concentrations. CoQ10 functions as an electron carrier within the ETC by taking electrons from enzyme complex I and enzyme complex II to complex III in this process. This is crucial in the process since no other molecule can perform this

function (Note: recent research now establishes that Vitamin K2 coper forms this role with CoQ10). Thus, CoQ10 functions in every cell of the body to synthesize energy. How do you think this product might function as a nutritional supplement to benefit the heart? Is CoQ used as a 'fuel' during cellular respiration?
