Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In the process of glycolysis, NAD+ is reduced to form NADH + H+. If NAD+ is not present, glycolysis will not be able to continue. During aerobic respiration, the NADH formed in glycolysis will be oxidized to reform NAD+ for use in glycolysis again.
Detailed explanation-2: -The function of NAD+ in aerobic respiration is to transport high-energy electrons to the electron transport chain in the mitochondria.
