उत्तर
- Co-enzymes are non-protein organic molecules that bind to enzymes to assist in catalyzing biochemical reactions.
- In cellular respiration, they act as essential electron and hydrogen carriers during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.
- Key examples include NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) and FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide).
- During the electron transport chain, $\text{NADH}_2$ and $\text{FADH}_2$ are oxidized, yielding 3 ATP and 2 ATP molecules respectively.
