The primary function of the respiratory system is to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide Inhaled oxygen enters the lungs and reaches the alveoli Oxygen passes quickly through this air blood barrier into the blood in the capillaries Similarly carbon dioxide passes from the blood into the alveoli and is then exhaled

blood rich in oxygen enters the lungs through the pulmonary artery in where the alveoli within the lungs exchange carbon dioxide and oxygen so the carbon dioxide leaves your body.

NAD and FAD work by loading and unloading _________ and _________ during energy transfers.
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Hydrogen and electrons

Explanation:

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) serve as reducing power during energy transfers. One NAD+ accepts one hydrogen ions and two electrons and becomes reduced into NADH. Likewise, FAD accepts two hydrogen ions and two electrons and is reduced into FADH2. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 into NAD+ and FAD respectively releases both hydrogen ions and electrons.  

For example, some of the energy of glucose released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle is temporarily stored in the form of NADH and FADH2. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 via electron transfer chain of mitochondria releases both electrons and hydrogen ions (protons). The protons are pumped across the inner mitochondrial membrane to generate the proton concentration gradient.
