검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall that NADH is a key electron carrier in cellular respiration, specifically in oxidative phosphorylation.
Understand that NADH donates electrons to Complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase) of the electron transport chain.
Recognize that each NADH molecule carries a pair of high-energy electrons, which it donates to Complex I.
Therefore, the number of electrons donated by NADH to Complex I is 2, since electrons are transferred in pairs.
This electron transfer initiates the process of proton pumping and ultimately contributes to ATP synthesis.
