Best Answer

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.

How many ATP molecules does each NADH molecule yield?

In glycolysis of cellular respiration, NADH produces 2ATP because one ATP is used to transport a molecule of NADH into the mitochondria and continue with aerobic respiration. However, in pyruvate decarboxylation and the Krebs cycle, each NADH yields 3ATPs. FADH2 yields 2 ATPs.

How many ATP and NADH molecules are produced from each molecule of glucose in the citric acid cycle only?

In my textbook it says that 1 molecule of ATP and 3 molecules of NADH are made from 1 molecule of pyruvate, via the citric acid cycle. However, since the question is asking for 1 molecule of GLUCOSE, the answer would be 2 ATP and 6 NADH since the oxidation of glucose produces TWO molecules of pyruvate, the amount of ATP and NADH would have to be doubled. I actually have this EXACT question on my exam... hmmm... do I know you by chance? o__O


What is the function of the NADH and FADH?

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.
