A
Happens in Cytoplasm
Glucose + 2NAD = 2 pyruvic acid + 2 ATP + 2NADH2
11
Q
NAD functions
A
Pick up a pair of H atoms that are removed from glucose and takes them to the ETS for further processing.
Anaerobic; NADH2 used to reduce 2 pyruvic acids into lactic acid
Aerobic; in mitochondria 2 pyruvic acids attached to Coenzyme A to become acetyl CoA
NADH2 = 1H2O + 3ATP
12
Q
