How many NADH+H are produced in glycolysis
A
1
B
2
C
4
D
0
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Both aerobic and anaerobic creatures experience it. In glycolysis, 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL) is oxidized to 1, 3-bisphosphoglycerate, which results in the production of 2 NADH molecules (BPGA).

Detailed explanation-2: -During glycolysis, glucose ultimately breaks down into pyruvate and energy; a total of 2 ATP is derived in the process (Glucose + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP + 2 Pi–> 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 H+ + 2 ATP + 2 H2O). The hydroxyl groups allow for phosphorylation.

Detailed explanation-3: -As a result, there is a net gain of two ATP molecules during glycolysis. During this stage, high-energy electrons are also transferred to molecules of NAD+ to produce two molecules of NADH, another energy-carrying molecule. NADH is used in stage III of cellular respiration to make more ATP.
