Which of these statements about NADH are true? (Select the 5 answers that are correct) Is the oxidized form of NAD+ Stores energy in phosphate bonds Has a higher redox potential than cytochrome b Has a higher redox potential than oxygen Is produced in aerobic respiration, but not in fermentation Is used to reduce acetaldehyde in alcoholic fermentation Moves energy in the form of electrons to pump H+ ions out of the cell in the ETS Is used to reduce pyruvate in lactic acid fermentation Has a higher redox potential than glucose

1. **Is the oxidized form of NAD+**: This is incorrect. NADH is the *reduced* form of NAD+. NAD+ is the oxidized form. 2. **Stores energy in phosphate bonds**: This is incorrect. ATP stores energy in phosphate bonds. NADH stores energy in its high-energy Show more…

A1. Which of these statements about fermentation is NOT true? A. Fermentation occurs in order to oxidize NADH so that NAD+ can be regenerated for subsequently oxidizing glucose via glycolysis. B. Fermentation is useful because an additional ATP can be produced in addition to those produced by glycolysis C. Fermentation does not involve the creation of a proton motive force to produce ATP. A2. The energy released from the breakdown of chemical bonds within the food can be stored by reducing ____. A. Oxygen B. Electron carriers C. Sunlight

Which of the following is true for NADH? (Multiple answers possible.) It is used up during carbon catabolism and must be restored by reducing NAD+ back to NADH during fermentation when ETS is not possible. It is formed during the TCA cycle when NAD+ is reduced and carbon dioxide is released. It stores energy in the form of an electron pair. It is used for energy to run many cell processes, such as membrane transport and flagellar motors.
