Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

What electron carrier is involved in glycolysis?

A	Matrix
B	Fermentation
C	NAD+
D	glycolysis

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -NADH: High energy electron carrier used to transport electrons generated in Glycolysis and Krebs Cycle to the Electron Transport Chain.

Detailed explanation-2: -NAD+ is an electron carrier because it carries the electrons of a hydride from one region of a cell to another.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glycolysis produces NADH from NAD+ and it ceases to continue if there is no NAD+ in a cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) are two major players in metabolism as they participate as electron carriers in a multitude of redox reactions.
