The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding NADH**: NADH is a coenzyme that plays a crucial role in cellular respiration. It is produced during various metabolic processes and is involved in the transfer of electrons. 2. **Identifying the Processes**: The question asks where NADH is produced. The options given are: - Photosystem II - Photosystem I - Glycolysis - Both A and B 3. **Analyzing Photosystems**: Photosystem I and Photosystem II are part of the photosynthetic process in plants. They are involved in the light-dependent reactions and primarily produce NADPH, not NADH. Therefore, these options can be eliminated. 4. **Focusing on Glycolysis**: Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose to produce energy. During this process, NADH is produced. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and is the first step in cellular respiration. 5. **Conclusion**: Since NADH is produced during glycolysis and not in the photosystems, the correct answer to the question is that NADH is produced in glycolysis. **Final Answer**: NADH is produced in glycolysis. ---
