FADH2 (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide) is an electron accepter that is utilized in cellular respiration. FADH2 is produced during the Krebs cycle of cellular respiration. It then brings the electrons to the cytochrome complex. Electrons accepted by FADH2 enter the cytochrome complex later than electrons accepted by NADH, and therefore produce less ATP.

What happens after glycolysis if oxygen is available?
The Krebs Cycles occurs. After the Krebs Cycle, the NaDH and FaDH go to the electron transport chain which is where the majority of the ATP is formed.
What two electron carrier molecules feed electrons into the electron transport chain?
NADH and FADH give high energy e- to the ETC which produces a high concentration gradient of hydrogen ions which then feed down into ATP synthase. The energy of the hydrogen ions moving down the ATP synthase generates the production of 36ATP in the mitochondria cristae.
What electron carriers are produced in the Krebs cycle?
There are two electron carriers produced in the citric acid (Krebs Cycle). The first is NAD+ or NADH in its reduced form. The other is FAD+ which becomes FADH2 after being reduced. One turn of the citric acid cycle produces 1 and 3 molecules of FADH2 and NADH respectively.
The citric acid cycle requires co-enzymes from what vitamins?
Vitamins, especially the B vitamins, play extremely important roles in producing cellular energy. Vitamins B2 and B3, for example, supply the major building blocks for substances called flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD and FADH) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD and NADH) which are critical elements of producing energy in the Krebs cycle as well as a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Thiamine is the cofactor of Thiamine pyrophosphate enzyme (TPP).
What does NADH do that FADH2 cannot Why can't FADH2 do this Explain.?
NAD+ is reduced in glycolysis , pyruvate oxidation and y Krebs cycle and in electron transport chain then NADH gain hydrogen NADH works as an electron carrier in this process and because there are 2 in glycolysis 2 in pyruvate oxidation 6 in Krebs cycle and is the first thing that oxidase in ETC providing energy in high amount because is going to loose all its h+ FADH2 only is produced 2x in glycolysis and is oxidized in ETC...so NADH provide more electrons than FADH and also more energy in aerobic cellular respiration I am in grade 11 ap biology and also esl student thanks
