They remove electrons from the electron transport chain.
They move down the electron transport chain.
They move down the electron transport chain.
They accept electrons in order to power the electron transport chain.

Answer 1

The correct response is: They move electrons to the electron transport chain.

NADH and FADH2 are important because they serve as electron carriers, transporting high-energy electrons from metabolic pathways like glycolysis and the Krebs cycle to the electron transport chain, where these electrons are used to generate ATP.
