FAD and NAD are not nucleotides, they are electron acceptors that are used in cellular respiration. The four nucleotides present in DNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. Represented by the letters A, G, C, and T. A fifth nucleotide is present in RNA called Uracil represented by the letter U. Uracil in RNA replaces thymine in DNA when RNA polymerase translates DNA into mRNA.

How many FAD and NAD plus molecules are needed for the breakdown of each glucose molecule?
There are 2 FAD and NAD and molecules. This is to breakdown each glucose molecule.
What is Full form of NAD and FAD?
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, abbreviated NAD+, is a coenzyme found in all living cells. The compound is a dinucleotide, since it consists of two nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups, with one nucleotide containing an adenine base and the other containing nicotinamide.In biochemistry, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is a redox cofactor involved in several important reactions in metabolism. FAD can exist in two different redox states and its biochemical role usually involves changing between these two states. Many oxidoreductases, called flavoenzymes or flavoproteins, require FAD as a prosthetic group which functions in electron transfers.
What feature is common in ATP nad fad and coa?
an ADP unit
What electron carrier function in the Krebs cycle?
both NAD + and FAD
When a poison such as rotenone blocks the electron transport chain glycolysis and the citric acid cycle soon grind to a halt as well because?
they run out of NAD and FAD;NAD+ and FAD, which are recycled by electron transport, are limited)
Nucleotides are the building blocks for?
ATP, NAD+ , and FAD Pg 46
A. both NAD plus and FAD b. NAD plus only c. the electron transport chain d. FAD only What electron carrier or carriers function in the Krebs cycle?
A. both NAD plus and FAD
Are NAD and FAD oxidized or reduced during Krebs?
NAD and FAD are reduced in the Krebs cycle and oxidised in the electron transport chain.
