-
What is more prevalent in the cell, NAD+ or NADH.
What is more prevalent in the cell, NADP+ or NADPH.

What are anabolism and catabolism?
Anabolism is the building of molecules in the cell and catabolism is the breakdown of molecules in the cell.
What is the role of NAD+ in either anabolism or catabolism?
What is the role of NADPH in either anabolism or catabolism?
NAD+ is used as an oxidizing agent for catabolism.
NADPH is used as a reducing agent for anabolism.
