- 12. Which of the following statement about coenzymes is not correct? The adenosine monophosphate component of NAD+ does not participate in the redox reaction. Ubiquinones such as coenzyme Q can be reduced in two steps involving one electron each.

- Different sugars prove to be easier or harder for yeast to metabolize. This affects the amount of energy you can get from each different sugar molecule. The easier the sugar molecule is to metabolize, the higher the energy yield (ie ATP yield).
