A) breaking down pyruvate into CO2 through a series of steps
B) reducing pyruvate into lactic acid or acetaldehyde to regenerate NAD+
C) breaking down a molecule of glucose or other organic fuel into two molecules of pyruvate
D) passing electrons through a chain of proteins to an electronegative molecule to oxidize NADH
