How are hydrogen atoms released during glucose breakdown oxidized?

Hydrogen atoms released during biological oxidation are trapped by N.A.D+ and F.A.D. molecules. When N.A.D.H. is oxidized, you get 3 ATP molecules converted from 3 ADP molecules. In this process about 40 % energy is trapped and rest released in the form of heat.

Is carbon dioxide reduce or oxidized i photosynthesis?
Water is oxidized in the process of photosynthesis.
How is energy produced inside mitochondria?
Glucose is oxidized in them. Released energy is stored in ATP
When a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized its six carbon atoms are changed into what?
Carbon atoms from a complex organic food molecule, such as glucose, are completely oxidized at the end of its reaction chain. Carbon dioxide is the waste that is released as a result of this reaction.
When a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized its six carbon atoms are changed into?
Carbon atoms from a complex organic food molecule, such as glucose, are completely oxidized at the end of its reaction chain. Carbon dioxide is the waste that is released as a result of this reaction.
Is glucose an electron?
When cell oxidize glucose molecule is 'not' a chemical oxidation, in which sudden energy is released. This is called as 'biological oxidation'. In which energy is released in step wise manner. So you get 38 ATP molecules/glucose molecule oxidized and proportion of heat is released to keep the cell warm.
When a glucose molecule loses a hydrogen atom as the result of an oxidation-reduction reaction the molecule becomes?
oxidized
Is carbon dioxide reduce or oxidized i photosynthesis?
Water is oxidized in the process of photosynthesis.
What reactant is oxidized in respiration?
Glucose is oxidized into CO2. Oxygen is reduced into Water
What does mitochondria change food into?
Glucose is oxidized into CO2.Released energy is stored in ATP.
Is glucose oxidized or reduced in cellular respiration?
