How does NAD plus get oxidized?
NAD+ isn't oxidised, it can be reduced by H to form NADH
Why you write NADH plus H plus instesd of NADH2?
Because extra proton left over is not bonded to the NADH molecule. Only NADH goes on to the Electron Transfer Chain. Plue, NAD+ can only bond to one hydrogen.
Why does nad become nadh plus h instead of just nadh during glycolysis?
NAD (neutral compound) added to H(+), a positively changed proton, gives you NADH(+)
How is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration similar to the role of NAD plus in fermentation?
As they both accept electrons and are reduced, but NAD carries stripped electrons from glucose ( becoming NADH ) to the electron transfer chain while oxygen is the final electron acceptor.
What is the role of NAD plus in the electronic transport chain during respiration?
NADH+ provides electrons for the é transport chain.
Is nadh oxidized or reduced compared to nad plus?
NAD+ is the oxidized and NADH is the reduced form.
When a molecule of NAD gains a hydrogen atom the molecule becomes?
It will be NADH. An electron quarrier in the photosynthesis process.
What happens when NAD plus becomes NADH?
Nadh is the reduced form of Nad+. Nad+ acts as a oxidizing agent and can accept electrons in various chemical reactions in the cell.
When electrons join NAD plus and FAD during the Krebs cycle what they form?
They form FADH2 and NADH
How does NAD plus get oxidized?
NAD+ isn't oxidised, it can be reduced by H to form NADH
When nad plus reacts with hydrogen and gains two electrons is?
NAD+ is reduced. It becomes NADH.
Why you write NADH plus H plus instesd of NADH2?
Because extra proton left over is not bonded to the NADH molecule. Only NADH goes on to the Electron Transfer Chain. Plue, NAD+ can only bond to one hydrogen.
Why does nad become nadh plus h instead of just nadh during glycolysis?
NAD (neutral compound) added to H(+), a positively changed proton, gives you NADH(+)
Nad plus picks up electrons and hydrogen forming?
NADH
What high energy electron carrier produces fewer atp's than nadh as its electrons pass through the electron transport chain?
The energy carrier that transports less energy than NADH but more than ATP is FAD and FADH2. Glucose oxidation is aerobic process C6H12O6 plus 6O2 equals 6CO2 plus 6H2O plus energy.
What is the main purpose of reduction of pyruvate to lactate during fermentation?
The main purpose of pyruvate reduction to lactate during fermentation is to convert NADH to NAD plus. Early in the glycolysis process, you'll see that there's a step where NAD plus gets reduced to NADH, and then an ATP is produced.
Can high levels of NADH and low levels of NAD plus stimulate glycolysis?
No it cannot. NADH inhibits glycolysis, the Krebs Cycle and the electron transport chain. HIGH levels of NAD however does stimulate glycolysis but High levels of NADH and low levels of NAD does not stimulate glycolysis but rather inhibits it.
