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.


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


What electron carrier function in the Krebs cycle?

both NAD + and FAD


What are the electron carrier molecules of kerbs cyle and kalvin cycle?

Kreb's cycle are 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)


When electrons join NAD plus and FAD during the Krebs cycle what they form?

They form FADH2 and NADH


What products of the Krebs cycle are used in the electon transport?

In the Krebs cycle NAD+ is reduced to NADH. This is one of the electron carriers. Also FAD is reduced to FADH2 which is the other electron carrier produced during the Krebs cycle.


What hydrogen carriers are used in cellular respiration?

NAD and FAD are the two hydrogen carriers involved in respiration. NAD is reduced in glycolysis, the Link Reaction and the Krebs Cycle to NADH + H+; whilst FAD is reduced to FADH2 solely in the Krebs Cycle. The role of the hydrogen carriers is to transport the hydrogen atoms to the Electron Transport Chain, where their energy is used to join ADP and Pi to give a molecule of ATP.


What terminal electron acceptors are used in anaerobic cellular respiration?

anaerobic cellular respiration has 3 different stages, and their final electron acceptors are: pyruvate oxidation- NAD+ Krebs cycle- NAD+, FAD+ electron transport chain- Oxygen


What are two examples of coenzymes used in cellular respiration?

Acetyl-CoA: CoA=Co-enzyme A; Coenzyme I, coenzyme II, coenzyme A and B-12 and coenzyme Q.


What does nad and nadh do in the Krebs cycle?

Well for people who aren't familiar with the abbr. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide aka NAD acts as an electron and hydrogen carriers in some oxidation-reduction reactions in the Krebs Cycle, and flavin adenine dinucleotide aka FAD is a hydrogen acceptor molecule in the Krebs Cycle.


What happens that causes hadh to change to nad plus and fadh2 to change to fad?

Loss of electrons causes NADH to become NAD+. This cycle of oxidation reduction helps generate ATP in cell respiration.
