Options
A. Redox potentials are defined under standard conditions, and cellular conditions are typically not standard conditions
B. The rules governing oxidation and reduction apply only in vitro, and not in vivo
C. Electrons always go from reductants with high redox potentials to oxidants with low redox potentials
