The electron transport chain is also known as the respiratory chain. NADH carries electrons in the form of hydrogen atoms to the electron transport chain.
NADH carries hydrogen and electrons that can be used in the process of chemiosmosis.
NADH
The high-energy electrons that are passed to the electron transport chain combine with O2 and H+ ions. This results to the formation of water molecules.
NADPH is used to cay hi energy electrons.

What happens to the high-energy electrons held by NADH if there is no oxygen present?
The electron transport chain is also known as the respiratory chain. NADH carries electrons in the form of hydrogen atoms to the electron transport chain.
The answer is NADH and FADH2. Both of these are electron carriers.
NADH carries hydrogen and electrons that can be used in the process of chemiosmosis.
NAD+ is reduced. It becomes NADH.
NADH
It becomes NAD. This happens during electron transport where NADH drops off its H+ and electrons to be used in oxidative phosphorylation. NAD now must move to glycolysis or citric acid cycle to regain its hydrogen.
nadh!
NAD+ is reduced. It becomes NADH.
high-energy electrons
The cells do with all those high-energy electrons in carriers like NADH? in the presence of oxygen, those electrons can be used to generated huge amounts of ATP.
