During glycolysis, two hydrogen atoms are picked up by the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). What B vitamin is r
Maslowich

Answer:

Niacin (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is known as important cofactor which help in carrying electrons from one reaction to another reaction in the cellular respiration process.

Cells are able to restore performed compounds which are containing a pyrimidine base precursor vitamin for the synthesis of NAD: nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, and nicotinamide riboside.

These elements are taken up from the diet whos containing vitamin B3. Nicotinamide, and nicotinamide riboside both can be absorbed from the gut. Niacin or vitamin B3 also produced within cells with the help of cellular digestion of NAD+.

A cellular structure that can be found in each type of cell that is unique to each type of cell, but that has a similar function
34kurt

Answer

Complex barrier to the flow of substances out of the cells,and restrictions to inflow of unwanted substances into the cells. The hydrophobic and hydrophilic nature of the cell membrane controls the entry of substances from the extracellular medium into the intracellualr. In addition the polarity restricts certain substance movement across the walls.

Serve as the selective channels  for the  influx of certain substances into the cells, and the out flux of wastes.This is through ion channels for the movements of ions across.

Provide insulation to the cells,to maintain the constant internal temperature,this is through the presence of lipids as( Phospholipids and cholesterol).The latter prevent the clogging of the lipids in the cell membrane therefore preventing frozen up of the cell membrane,providing insulation.

Separation of metabolic process in the cell.

Explanation:

Cell membrane-This is present in all cells.But the variation of its constituents makes it unique to each cell. Although it performs the same role, the location and role the cells it bounded, reflects its  constituents, it is made up of lipids, carbohydrate, protein and cholesterol
