Question
Chapter 11.8, Problem 1MI
Summary Introduction
Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) pathway is the most common form of glycolysis. The NAD+ is reduced in the catabolic direction of the EMP pathway. This catabolic direction will carry out the oxidation of glucose and the reduction of NAD+ to NADH. This makes the NADH molecule to provide electrons to the electron transport chain or ETC.
