Solution

The correct option is A NADH
The net yield of the process of glycolysis is 2 ATP molecules and 2 NADH molecules, and 2 protons for each glucose molecule oxidized to pyruvate. Four ATP molecules are produced in the sixth and ninth steps of glycolysis. Two ATP molecules are consumed in the first and third steps of glycolysis. Two molecules of NADH are formed in step 5 of glycolysis by the acceptance of 2 protons and four electrons by two molecules of NAD+.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
