Answer:

C. NADPH

Step-by-step explanation:

NADH and NADPH are coenzymes of redox reactions in the cell. They are carriers of hydrogen atoms, including electrons. More precisely, both NAD + and NADP + accept the hydride anion H−, accept two electrons and a proton.

Later, this hydride anion can be passed on to other molecules along with the release of energy. The formation of NADPH and NADH takes place through various independent pathways that are regulated.
