Which is the form of FAD that is not carrying electrons?Group of answer choicesFADH₂FAD

Break Down the Problem

1. Identify the forms of FAD being compared: FADH₂ and FAD.
2. Determine which form is not carrying electrons.

Relevant Concepts

1. FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme involved in various biological reactions, including those in the electron transport chain.
2. FAD can accept electrons to become FADH₂, which is the reduced form of FAD.

Analysis and Detail

1. FAD: This is the oxidized form and does not carry electrons.
2. FADH₂: This is the reduced form of FAD, which means it has accepted electrons (specifically, two electrons and two protons).

Verify and Summarize

• Since FAD is the oxidized form and does not carry electrons, it is the correct answer to the question.

Final Answer

The form of FAD that is not carrying electrons is FAD.
