NAD is an oxidizing agent.
RAWAN said:   10 years ago
It should be NAD + TO NADH.
Kay said:   10 years ago
It is correct as NADH to NAD+ because when you get rid of H, you are oxidizing it. The more H, the more reduced.
Joachim said:   9 years ago
It involves reduction of NAD+ to NADH.

Even B is correct since glycolysis does not require oxygen to take place.

Yes @Henry.

Glucolysis can still occur without Oxygen.
