The process that uses NADH and FADH to create ATP is oxidative phosphorylation. This process occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane and involves the transfer of electrons from NADH and FADH to the electron transport chain, leading to the production of ATP through a series of redox reactions.
Glycolysis
The process in which glucose is broken down to produce ATP is called cellular respiration. It primarily occurs in three stages: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Glycolysis converts glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP and NADH; the Krebs cycle further processes pyruvate, generating more NADH and FADH2; finally, oxidative phosphorylation uses the electrons from NADH and FADH2 to create a proton gradient, driving ATP synthesis through ATP synthase. Overall, this process efficiently converts glucose's chemical energy into usable ATP.
Chloroplasts are the main source of ATP (the cell's energy) for the cell to use. This is the only organelle structure that uses photosynthesis to create glucose, which is then made into NADH and ATP.

Aerobic respiration produces 36 ATP from one glucose molecules. Anaerobic respiration produces only 2. Two glucose molecules are produced during glycolysis. In addition to producing ATP from ADP, glycolysis also converts NAD+ to NADH. If no oxygen is available, more energy needs to be produced from glycolysis. However, for glycolysis to occur, NAD+ must be regenerated from NADH. Thus, in a process known as anaerobic fermentation, NAD+ is regenerated from NADH. Fermentation doe snot fully oxydize glucose. After glycolysis, the glucose molecule has been converted into two molecules of pyruvate. Fermentation uses pyruvate to convert NAD+ back to NADH so it can be used for another round of glycolysis. If oxygen is present, the two pyruvate molecules from glycolysis can be fully oxydized in a process known as aerobic respiration. This process consists of the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain. The process is beyond the scope of this post, but aerobic respiration basically produces more NADH and FADH2 from pyruvate and uses the NADH/FADH2 molecules to oxydize O2 to H2O. The Krebs cycle produces 2 ATP and the electron transport chain produces 32 ATP. Thus, aerobic respiration is a far more efficient means of energy production.

Glycolysis
NADH is important in cellular respiration because it carries high-energy electrons that are used to generate ATP, the cell's main energy source. During the process of cellular respiration, NADH donates these electrons to the electron transport chain, which then uses them to create a proton gradient that drives the production of ATP through a process called oxidative phosphorylation. In essence, NADH helps convert the energy stored in food molecules into ATP, which is essential for various cellular functions.
Glycolysis produces 4 ATP's and 2 NADH, but uses 2 ATP's in the process for a net of 2 ATP and 2 NADH

Within the context of cellular respiration (as well as in photosynthesis) NADH acts as an electron receptor. During glycolysis and the Kreb's cycle, various molecules are oxidized (lose electrons) and these electrons are passed to NADH. The NADH then carries the electrons to the mitochondria where they are deposited for the electron transport chain which uses the movement of the electrons to generate ATP (adenosine triphosphate; the body's energy molecule).
In the photosynthesis process, water combines with CO2 to create sugars

10 NADH molecules are produced in total. 2 during glycolysis, 2 during link reaction (1 per pyruvate, 2 per glucose molecule), and 6 during the Krebs cycle. None during the electron transport chain.
