Can someone please answer my question?? What are the coenzymes that are used in each process in their reduced form? photosynthesis aerobic respiration
photosynthesis make their food by their own and aerobic respiration dont
i have to list their conenzymes
In metabolic pathways, coenzymes play a vital role. Metabolic enzymes operate in the body's cells and blood. Metabolic enzymes facilitate the chemical reactions that carry out the processes of metabolism. Typically, metabolic enzymes are composed of two components: (1) an "apoenzyme" that identifies which molecule within a cell requires a specific chemical reaction and (2) a "coenzyme" that initiates the specific chemical reaction. The body's primary sources of energy are produced at the cellular level by metabolic processes. Coenzyme-A (CoA), Acetyl Coenzyme-A (acetyl CoA), Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and Coenzyme 1 (NADH), together with certain B-vitamins and their coenzyme forms are necessary for such energy production during: (1) the tricarboxylic acid cycle (the TCA cycle, Krebs cycle, or citric acid cycle) and (2) the glycolitic cycle. Coenzyme-A is the most active metabolic enzyme in the human body. It operates in the body's cells and blood where it initiates hundreds of important processes in the body. Coenzyme-A passes out of the body and should be replenished on a daily basis. Coenzymes are chemicals synthesized by organisms from dietary vitamins. Coenzymes are carriers of substances to and from enzyme-catalyzed reactions: NAD+ (oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) carries hydrogen and is derived from dietary niacin. It is designated as NADH + H+ (sometimes NADH2) when it is in the reduced form. Recall that the reduced form is the energetically valuable one, whereas the oxidized form is the energy poor one. A structurally similar coenzyme, NADP+, is important in photosynthesis and other cellular phenomena. FAD (oxidized form of flavin adenine dinucleotide) carries hydrogen and is derived from riboflavin. It is designated FADH2 when it is in the reduced form. CoA (Coenzyme-A) carries an acetyl group to the site of the Krebs Cycle; it is derived from pantothenic acid. It may also carry a succinyl group. When combined, it is called acetyl (or succinyl) CoA.
I think NADH, NADPH FADH for photosynthesis and NADH for aerobic respiration
