Answer: B

Explanation:

Co Enzymes NAD+and FADH + are the electron carriers as NADH and FADH2.

The electrons are locked in hydrogen atoms the carry.

The Hydrogen atoms is split into

Pronton (H) and electons (e-).

It is these electrons that move in chains through the protein carriers to generate energy for pumping protons across the intra membranes of the mitochondrial or chloroplasts for ATP synthsis by the ATPs synthase.
