leaving ATP even NADPH2 and FADPH2 will also take place in humans. if not why it doesnot take place in humans but rather it happens in plants. explain

Dear student,
Both NADPH2 and FADPH2 are present in humans. NADH is reduced form of NAD which is a coenzyme form of Niacin, Vitamin B3. Both NADH and FADH play an important role in energy production in a cell.Breakdown of the food to convert the energy available from food into most usable form is done by these two compounds.During cellular respiration, every NADH form 3 ATP molecule and every FADH forms 2 ATP molecule.These two act as electron carriers and transfer their electron to Electron Transport Chain.
Regards
