They are used in the production of ATP, the 'energy currency' of the cell.
FADH2 and NADH have the very important role of being electron carriers for the electron transport chain. Both are used at key points in glycolysis and/or the Kreb's cycle.
FADH2 : Carries electrons in the form of hydrogen atoms (1 proton and 1 electron) with 0 net charge. With 2 hydrogens FAD may use these electrons one at a time or 2 at a time, depending on which ever process it is in.
NADH : Carries it's electrons in the form of hydrides (1 proton and 2 electrons) with -1 net charge. Since these electrons are in the hydride form they both must be used at the same time, there isn't an option to use 1 OR 2 only 2 electrons.
From what I understand of NADH and FADH2, they move electrons from one molecule to another, aerobic respiration (cells creating energy with the use of oxygen). So I would take to guess that NADH and FADH2 help cells create energy effectively.
They are electron carriers, They transport electrons from one reaction to another.
Cellular respiration can be broken down into many components, each of which involve the reduction of NAD or FAD (ie loss of electrons) or the oxidation of NADH or FADH (ie gain of electrons.)
NADH and FADH2 are electron carriers for cells.
In the field of microbiology, NADH stands for a reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. FADH refers to flavin adenine dinucleotide.
FADH2, like NADH, function as a reducing agent in cellular respiration and it donates electrons to the electron transport chain.
They are electron carriers
NADH and FADH are Coenzymes which act as carriers of electrons, protons, and energy in metabolism.

I believe it's NADH and FADH
NADH and FADH are Coenzymes which act as carriers of electrons, protons, and energy in metabolism.

what is FADH use a glycolysis, or citric acid cycle, or electron transport, or aoligosaccharide, or a plasmid

probably something.
