Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following are reduced coenzymes?
A
ATP and GTP
B
NAD+and FAD
C
NADH and FADH2
D
Coenzyme A and ubiquinone
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The electron transport system in the inner mitochondrial membrane begins the generation of ATP using the reduced coenzymes NADH and FADH2 generated during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 is coupled with ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Reduced Coenzymes as Energy Storage Elements It participates in electron transport reactions in cell metabolism processes like glycolysis. Another essential coenzyme is FAD which also contributes to the electron transport process.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is a redox coenzyme.
